I note your efforts were for the benefit of all of us.

However in relation to your comment highlighted below, I believe that the potential dangers involved as a result of such a dispensation significantly outweigh the broader benefits.

However if you or I fly to a private country strip out near Coonabarabran, we cannot make a decision to join directly on base or to do less than a 5 mile final for a straight-in approach. In effect, the rules state that air traffic controllers know more than the pilot in relation to the safety of the aircraft.
