gupta;
And if it is not subsidised?
On another matter, a certain organisation supported the ASIC because they thought they were going to be "the" accredited issuerer of cards and therefor make a motza out of the members and force the other non members to come on board.
The ASIC theoretically allowed you access to the RPT apron, but realistically, how many of us wanted to go swanning around there anyway.
Same with ADSB, what VFR private pilot wants to go swanning around high traffic major Capital City airports and operations in the J curve in the flight levels. I don't.
I don't have an ASIC out of principle and fly all over the place now without having to go anywhere near RPT operations, (not that it was unsafe before), but places like Moree don't get my fuel money, for what is was worth. Narromine and Chinchilla do.
