Thanks for that Griffo, the history needs to be said. 'Tis a shame but a whole ocean has gone under that bridge. The problems of now just remind me of what could have been done as a simple evolution rather than wholesale change and change and change to get back to exactly the same pre-tech problems of providing a service for a sparsly populated country.
For the ATC guys, don't misunderstand me...this is all very ancient history. It's just the place where the NAS story began. I just hope I do not sound harsh on present company. You guys are fantastic
