The second stage of the mandate was for all aircraft that now require radio to have ADSB.
Are you now suggesting that only the first stage is being considered?
And if Qantas support the subsidy why is it that they do not put anything in writing nor make any public statement about this?
Surely, if they really believed in this proposal they would say something in relation to claims (not just from myself)-that they do not.
And it looks like Qantas do not support the proposal as the "drop dead" date claimed by AsA for the decision is now well passed.
When there is no real leadership the result is SILENCE.
