So on one side of the argument, WLM is an unsafe CTAF because of the GA that flys around there on weekends and should be fully controlled......on the other hand when GA are separated IAW the rules and regulations set by CASA that all Air Traffic Controllers are required to compy with it is over controlled. Make up your mind.

As numerous other people have pointed out in this thread so far, this is not something that you should be targeting at Defence and you certainly should not be targeting the young men and women of this country who perform their jobs with the utmost professionalism and ceaseless enthusiasm. Lets not forget that they are also willing to go and serve in countries where there lives are at risk.........they do not deserve to be subjected to one man's unhappiness with the current rules and procedures that apply in this country. I would far rather see them do their job and comply with the rules then disregard them and perhaps cause an accident.

How about becoming a little bit professional yourself and tackle this so called "risk" in a professional manner and take your so called concerns formally to CASA and let them decide if indeed there is a safety issue, I suspect not!
