Dick Dick Dick! Come on! I'll go further than Ramrod and say that CASA has been proactive in minimising costs to industry by canning the planned introduction of the tower at YPPD due to traffic levels that didn't increase enough to indicate a tower was needed, even though the aeronautical study of a few years indicated that a tower was going ot be on the cards. I wouldn't be surprised if, in the near future, the AFIS is removed because of further declining traffic. What will you say then?
To insinuate that CASA is rolling back because they put in an AFIS at YPPD just shows us all that you seem to be pushing your agenda come hell or high water. Your sustained attacks on just about everybody and everything in the industry really does your cause no good at all.
