Is that so? I have read that the Tech Committee of the AFAP supported the installation of weather radar
Bloggs,
You need to read further (and not only about ICAO CNS/ATM airspace classifications), the AFAP only changed its position after the loss of the Viscount into Botany Bay.
Another example was the refusal to wear shoulder harnesses on T/O and landing, until a DC-4 was lost.
Remember the demands for 3 pilot crews on B737?? The strike at TAA ??
And so on, a long history of Australian domestic pilots resisting development ----- don't forget I was on the AFAP Tec. sub-committee (as it was than) for quite a few years ---- until we could no longer live with the AFAP, and formed AIPA.
As you may recall, the AFAP demanded E/Os on B767, we simply would not go along with such arrant nonsense. That was the straw that broke the camel's back.
D in India is only for towered airfields, you will find E,F and G in the airway system, you can verify that from the link provided. Hundreds of large aircraft fly through that airspace every day ---- probably greater than the number of RPT in Australian domestic airspace in any 24 hour period.
Tootle pip!!
