JFJ, You don't appear to be able to open your mind to fact that we can change our 1950's procedural standards to those that have been proven safe in other modern aviation countries.

All instrument approaches in the USA are in a minimum of class E controlled airspace yet over 50% of those approaches commence below radar coverage. The system works superbly so why can't we at least try it at one airport in Australia?

We will one day and it will work well! In fact Airservices have told me they intend to trial low level class E at Ballina

But don't hold your breath- there are not many people at AA who can actually manage change!
