With respect to not receiving a reply from the TWR and proceeding into the broadcast area anyway, maybe there is a CAR clause somewhere that allows being pinged for reckless/unsafe/behaving like a peanut conduct
Yes ... but my point is that they are asking us to 'broadcast' to a station and wait for a response before proceeding ... a radio procedure, which by definition, doesn't exist nor require a response.

All that is needed is the change of one word .... 'contact' instead of 'broadcast'.

Why won't they use that word? Because that would make it Class D ... and that would not appease those that need appeasing.

CASA ... If Class E, without appropriate surveillance, does not provide the required safety outcomes at Avalon at the moment, bite the bullet and make it Class D ... untill the surveillance is available.

This is starting to sound very familiar ...

If they bit the bullet at BRM/KTA ... why won't they at Avalon? Why is it different?

There must be some very strong political forces at play here ...

Edit: God, I'm starting to sound like Dick Smith
