Are you serious? Are you saying that you really don't understand how to use the radio in Class E works here, the airspace you should be an expert in and which you are making so much noise about?

As an aside, ICAO needs it's head read if it thinks No-Radio should be mixing it with RPT jets in CTAFs. Or do you, Dick, think that ICAO assumes that RPT jets would always be operating in controlled airspace ie Class D, and would you support that for all of our RPT jet airfields in the regions?

I hope I can get some support in getting that Tassie system to work as planned. Will make these places safer without doubt.
Done your CBA on that?
