Sure Dick, happy to oblige (see story below). I'm sure the tax office will be happy with a deferred payment program if you can't get your hands on $77 million straight away.

FED: Air radar system $77m and four years over target: Dems

CANBERRA, Aug 16 AAP - Australia's new air traffic control system's budget had blown out by $77 million and was four years behind schedule, the Australian Democrats said today.

The Advanced Australian Air Traffic System (TAAATS), which uses software and satellite-based technologies, was expected to be completed by December 1995 for $300 million.

It will now be finished at the end of this year for $377 million.
