now accepted by pilots and air traffic controllers.
Dick, I'm a pilot and ATC. I don't accept that I can't use visual separation above 10,000ft as a controller (or pilot) but the simple fact of the matter is if I decided to use it while it doesn't exist as a separation standard anymore, it's not just tea and bickies, it's DCM.
Your beef is with CASA, ASA, RAAF, OAR and possibly ICAO. Not with individual controllers. You're not going to achieve anything amongst us (ATC's) when you continue to berate us in a public forum.
