What do I think.......more Oxygen use as I plan FL110/120/130/140/150/160 as required.

Many of the RAA folk have been flying up to 10K anyway, and only some of them flying the correct levels, listening to the appropriate frequency, and understanding what they are hearing. Not to mention flying over under and around cloud

Personally I think they should be requiring all members to undergo some training just like they did for Human Factors in order to keep their flying privileges, or provided they are ATPL, CPL or PPL with current BFR or Instrument renewals so it can be demonstrated they have understanding of the current rules and how to operate.

Otherwise its just a mate saying....go for it and not knowing what they should be doing.

And before some of you arc up saying thats unfair, thats snobbery or based on anecdotal hearsay..........think again, its based on a lot of experience operating around some of the most densely populated RAA skies in the country.

BTW......the most appropriate frequency is????? 123.45 or 126.7

............now this should be a cracker of a thread.
