Radar control used properly can make operations safer in the terminal area.
Obviously. Only flying in VMC makes operations safer too. I would like radar approach services at all the ports I fly to, but I'm a realist; they're just not necessary. You know, Affordable Safety. You may have plenty of dosh, but you have also been ranting on about costs to industry. My operation certainly doesn't need radar control at most of the places I go to; would you be prepared to pay for the service, assuming of course you have done a cost-benefit analysis to work out how much it will actually be...haven't you?
