Radar Man. Fascinating. Can you explain further re the military people making the CTAF frequency changes then retreating back to the military. How do people go back? Did this actually happen?
I must admit I did speak to an ex military bloke at CASA Operations and he was convinced the wind back was correct with circuit calls to be on the area frequency as they were in the 1950s.
Also Mark Skidmore has made it very clear he also supports the wind back so aircraft monitoring area frequencies can hear circuit traffic at un map marked airports.
He says he is not concerned about the potential blocking of ATC instructions to IFR aircraft. These Ex RAAF people stick together . A sort of group think. They are not concerned that countries such as the USA , Canada and the U.K. have no similar requirements.. In fact most ex military types have no real interest in how other leading aviation countries run there airspace procedures.
Copying the best from around the world is not in their training!
