dircmt, I am not "targeting" the young people in the military- I am totally supportive and on their side. I am however targeting those in the decision making positions in Canberra who make no decisions on this issue.
I have taken my concerns to CASA and I am told that the military bosses refuse to allow any change-no doubt because they cannot see any advantage for them.
For safety reasons I believe we should have ATC at Williamtown and not just a CTAF-but why can't we have modern classD airspace and procedures so that aircraft are not forced to hold at low level over the ocean!
