"Bitter you can't play"?

Don't think so mate, I always thought I was born too late.

I got my rocks off flying a spitfire that my Dad owned and flew.

His contempories mixed it up in combat.

They didn't sit above the flak dropping million Dollar bombs to destroy $250 hiluxes.

I have no issue with the RAAF, they have their job to do, but they are funded by civilians, therefore they should recognize and accept that if civilians are economically compromised by their activities there is a danger that their activities eventually will be compromised.

Australian airspace management is unique to Australia, separation of military and civilian traffic is unique to Australia. Is there nothing to be learnt from the way the rest of the world does things??
