It wasn't so long ago that RA-Aus were not allowed to cross a road, let alone fly above 5,000ft. Now, if the aircraft is suitably equipped, and it can fly above 8,500ft, what is the problem with flying through the same airspace at 4,500ft?
If there are still problems with containing the angst about RA-Aus to fly in CTA, why doesn't the Director of Aviation Safety give way to some concessions WRT training standards to allow this so everybody has a Pvt GA CTA standard, or issue an OCTA licence/ certificate only?
I know a lot off GA pilots that are OCTA only and it is mainly of their own choice.

I can't imagine why anybody would need, or want a tragedy to prove a point.
Lets all hope it never happens.
