Who is Nik Suddards and apart from being an interfering busybody what is his role or remit in this?
A helicopter pilot operating in the Highlands.

It's an interesting idea for constructive discussion.
For the fastjets, we'd have to be transmitting almost continuously. If they had TCAS, they could pick up our ModeS+C.
What form would the position report take? eg "xxxx' over Lochan Fada" or what my Airspace Avoid would give, something like "xx.y miles NNE of Plockton" or Lat Long?
If the CAA said 134.750 could be used, it could be tried.
