No. Not an "advocate". Just a person who accepts that in all airspace I pilot must remain vigilant at all times.

Not possible to see other planes in cloud that's why I support class E.

We could have had class E at Ballina at a lower cost than 17 fireman and a $12 m fire station.

Surely better to spend money on preventing accidents first rather than pulling bodies out of burning aircraft that collided in cloud like nearly happened at bundaberg .

We need a more dynamic ATC Union - or they need to get advice from the Firemans a Union!
