4Greens;

I have put forward some fairly definitive views on SMS and its potential effectiveness. Others in Canada have testified along the same lines at a Senate hearing early last year. I would be interested in your views from your vantage point, on the practicalities of SMS based upon the criticisms I and others have offered.

It is reasonable to accept, in theory, SMS as a positive step forward providing it is fully embraced and resourced by airlines but I don't believe it is, and as such cannot work in practise. I would be interested in hearing otherwise, and why.

Cheers,
PJ2
