You are so wrong, Dick. The system includes every change in airspace over the last ten years. Flow with it means you are familiar and professional with the operations of flying in controlled airspace. No matter what rules you change!

Radar separation standard is 3nm and 1000ft. The choice of ATC is to either vector the Baron on approach or hold the 182 for less than two minutes to achieve that separation. It is easier for the 182 to hold. Now, how far did that 182 go out over the ocean, Dick? How long was the 182 held for?

Some advice, Mr Smith. You are burning your bridges with your so called supporters. Use your status to do something worthwhile. Leave the boys and girls at WLY alone. Learn the system and flow with it, stop acting like an ass!

Want to do something useful? ASIC out to five years like the truckies MSIC. Class 1 instructors to be able to take students without having to procure an AOC. CIR checked along with AFR and remain in force until cancelled (Same as the US, buddy!) The tower at EN. Get some of that GST taken out of a stateless aviation industry to be spent back in the industry it is ripped out of. We have got a new Transport minister who could be the worst thing to happen to aviation since Charlie Jones' day, How about being nice for a change and use some actual facts. Put your money into getting out and promoting GA as a good way to spend your recreational dollar and go see Australia rather than trying to portray it as a single engine disaster just waiting to happen over a suburb near you. Look around you, Dick. The last runway built in NSW was Temora three years ago and that was the first one in twenty years. Evans Head aerodrome is being set for the developers chopping block yet it serves an essential service. Soon , there will be no GA friendly aerodromes within the SY basin. Infrastucture is what is stuck in the past!
