You have a delightful sense of humour.
"Knife" - item for eating - item for killing people.
Fact - use of knives - lots of eating - small amount of killing people.
If we adopt your GPS / buzz bomb scenario we will forsake the use of all the positives of GPS because someone might misuse the technology. On the analogy, we may as well ban knives and go back to tearing at food with our hands (actually a little like the troglodyte return to caveman resistance to the positives of ADS-B when I analyse it).
Australian airspace will soon change to appreciate the marriage of new technology with safety. Those who believe otherwise obviously won't post on here - they are still using snail mail
Oh, I just remembered your concern at being compared to Walter Mitty and some amazing James Bond analogy you purported. This may help (ah, apology this is the commonly accepted version, not your flight of fiction):
Walter Mitty appears in the short story
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, written by humorist
James Thurber and published in
The New Yorker in 1939. Mitty is a meek and henpecked husband who daydreams of being a daring surgeon, heroic pilot and dashing naval commander. ("Throw on the power lights! Rev her up to 8500! We're going through!") Thurber's story was a mere 2100 words long, but the character struck a chord and "Walter Mitty" has become popular shorthand for any timid soul who dreams of a more dashing life.
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty was made into a 1947 film with
Danny Kaye as Mitty.
Bing, when you have finished diverting the threads let's talk about Oz Airspace and how Leaddy, you, Bob & X, and even Dick - can support an Oz consortium joining with the regulators for Oz to exercise its amazing intellectual capability and lead the world in airspace management. There's a lot of people who can be saved from CFIT, and a lot of Regional RPT pilots, who just might thank you for your review of the situation.
