Classic example today, heading North from Sydney, stuck at low level because the RAAF had blocked all the airspace from Willy to Dubbo.
Fuel burn was twice what it should have been so the end result my company made no money for the day, and the Hunter valley received a whole lot more greenhouse gasses than it should have.
The taxes my company pays, and the taxes I pay are used to fund these testosterone fuelled people to play their games in the middle of the main North South civilian air corridor.
There are civilian deaths that have occurred because of this, and there will be more in the future until Australia shrugs off its third world mentality.
I always thought that our military were subservient to the peoples parliament, if that is not true then we live in a military dictatorship, much like North Korea.
