Weather cams - great idea!
Caution Dick's style though (and this is what makes me extremely dubious about what he would do as a politician) - note the headline and the spin.
Headline:
Weather CAMS - CASA has no interest?
(immediately getting people up in arms, bloody CASA, why haven't those bastards acted etc etc)
Spin:
I wrote to the Civil Aviation Safety Authority a while back ... places like Kilmore Gap ... safety could be improved.
Nowhere does he say how long ago, what form these suggestions took, who he wrote to specifically, or what response was received.
No, in his inimitable style he says something to inflame the masses (us) in order to further his own agenda. You watch, there'll probably be an Australian article in due course bringing this up as part of his platform to run for election, or some other personal aim.
Good luck to him in the end, and he's done a hell of a lot that I and many of us would never be able to replicate, but do be aware that just about everything he writes as far as I've seen is manipulative, which annoys the hell out of me.
Why can't sitting or would-be politicians just say it straight for a change?
