Thanks
OZ,
I suppose the point I was trying to make is that us 'fundamentalists' who 'resist change' are probably more positive about giving a fair go, where it can be done safely, than the 'true believers.' The 'true believers' just think about themselves - VH/VFR going anywhere and bugger the IFR. Before anyone jumps, that ain't all VH operators, just the protagonists of Russian Roulette airspace (Class E terminal).
The RAA folk that I've met would bend over backwards to comply with
reasonable conditions that would allow them to have some access. As I said before:
I'd far prefer a responsible RAA dude, listening out and broadcasting, than some idiot who reckons that in G all you have to do is listen to your CD player.
