Industrial was it?
Too right it was industrial (not involving ATC) ---- the circumstances of CASA pulling the plug, one the eve of the system going "permanent".

I'm not going into any more detail, because when I do, I get in strife.

Maybe Dick might like to fill in the gaps, he has deeper pockets than me, and he knows the whole deal, warts and all.

NAS 2b was NOT pulled on safety grounds. That is a simple fact.

Whether any of you want to believe that is now immaterial, as all those directly involved have left the industry, it really is "history", just one more example of how hard it is, achieving any change and modernization in current day Australia, not confined to the aviation sector.

Tootle pip!!

PS: I see that a 50% blowout is already forecast for OneSky --- is anybody surprised??
