Piltdown Man,
The ATIS at PD,and probably PH,PF are automated with the Samos system.It's transmitted by the wee mannie hiding in the secret booth somewhere.Threshold Elevation is always given out,so I don't see the problem.
Take a visit round PD sometime as well,especially if WW3 is kicking off in the MDA's.Even Nexus,ATF/ADN routing,is getting you into a very scary piece of airspace in Class G.
55 mile radius from PD is a hell of a lot of sky,to look out for bandits 12 o'clock high,and do the other primary tasks that are required.The 3 aircraft that I have had in ClassG that were almost welded with the military,were all on RAS/Deconfliction.All sitting ducks.
Good luck out there.
