TV PROGRAM TRANSCRIPT

LOCATION: 7.30 Report - 26/05/2004: Close calls place airspace system under close scrutiny

Broadcast: 26/05/2004

MIKE CAPLEHORN, BROOME INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT GROUP: They're going way back to the square one.

The aircraft don't even need a radio and you can come into an airport any time you want.

Now, if that happens at the same time that a large jet is going down and coming into that airport, then you have a very, very serious chance of a major crash.

It's not just Broome -- we're talking about Karratha, we're talking about Kalgoorlie, we talking about Ayres Rock, we're talking about a lot of our major regional airports and, quite frankly, it's crazy.


The wheel turns a full circle!
