I don't know much about the ATC politics/aspects of WARRP, but I fly in it every day and I'm happy. Things appear in the cockpit to be much more organised. Sure we get stuffed around occasionally, but that makes life interesting. On only one occasion have I flown the full GURAK off 03 - the RAAF do seem to go out of it's way to track-shorten us.

As for the 15nm GPS standard and one-way routes, that is singly the biggest risk-reducer I have seen in WA for decades. Brilliant. If the boys did nothing else right, that earned them a gold medal.
