Dick, if you want to change the way the rules that govern how ATC is done (whether tower controllers use radar, for example), then lobby for that. But you dont seem to. You seem to expend enormous amounts of time and energy trying to change the airspace system, so one has to wonder (if you think "its criminal") why you are trying to change the whole airspace system and not the minor/simple/easy things that might deliver a tangible benefit (such as the tower at LT using the available radar)? It doesnt require a whole new system- just some rule changes and a bit of training. Of course, you would need to actually have staff to train.

There is the biggie, of course, which you consistenlty decline to even mention, let alone attempt change on-the charging regime.

After reading your last post- lets not get confused between "efficient handling of traffic" and "efficient use of resources". It might produce an excellent experience if Coffs had a dedicated flow, final radar directors etc etc. But wouldnt be tolerated in the waste of resources dept (and the cost to the users).
