Grrr

I was chatting to a couple of easyJet first officers recently who are looking forward to flying out of Southend, but not the flying outside controlled airspace in busy class G to get in and out! TCAS is a wonderful tool, but useless against non-transponder equipped aircraft.

I did comfort them when I pointed out that Class D protection will be available during the Olympic Games!
