Stationair, the incident between the Tobago and the B737 at Launy was a beatup to reverse the NAS2b.
The Tobago pilot had the 737 sited at all times and told the ATSB there was never any chance of a collision.
The 737 crew never sited the Tobago and the incident was only reported because class E introduced a mandatory transponder requirement for that airspace for the first time.
If there was a genuine safety concern we would not have a load of 737's and other jet airlines still flying in riskier class G terminal airspace every day at places like Proserpine and Ballina without even class E let alone a mandatory transponder requirement.
And when a lighty has a transponder and causes an RA to an airline aircraft at one of these class G locations does anyone call for the airspace to be reversed?
Of course not- if we have had this airspace in the past it must never be changed!
Cover up the faults in our existing airspace and beatup any incidents in any changed airspace so we always revert to what the "no change" fundamentalists want.
Fortunately new young pilots and controllers are coming along- they send me private messages of support all the time.
