Remember when Australia led the world with the Microwave Landing System (MLS)?
Tens of millions of dollars were spent by the industry(mainly AWA) and the Government.
It was claimed that our country was leading the world and a fortune was going to be made.
Unfortunately not so.
The problem was that enough critical questions were not asked at the time. Those involved got carried away with their own B-S. I am afraid and all the money was lost
I totally support the concept of ADSB however I see substantial risk in moving too quickly without honestly looking at all of the complex issues in a totally open way.
And James, it's not just me that Airservices have kept out of the loop for the last 5 years- it appears to be anyone who may have a different view.
