Ok, understandably!
Ok, so heres the next problem, when does a pilot who is unfamiliar with ATC/ AFIS/UNICOM know when they are over stepping the mark....i know the answer is in training, but a difficult subject to cover, im sure you understand, you train ATC operators at Airways, so its a subject un to its own, and yet for pilots its everyday stuff and probably not covered well enough do you agree? I remember many a student being 'afraid of controlled airspace' yet later you realise its a blessing
Again though, UNICOM is covered as part of FRTO, as is ATC and AFIS, and again i understand that FRTO doesnt mean that you understand everything about ATC services! Hell, ive got alot more flying time than most of the 'learning' / 'recreational' pilot genre and i still learn what ATC can and cant do all the time.
Difficult eh!
