No. No dopey ATCs or Pilots post on or read this site.
It's only the really bright lateral thinking ones so I can't possibly be offending anyone personally.
Bloggs. That's my very point. In the UK Europe, Canada and the USA at non radar class D towers or equivalent the airspace to the minima remains with the centre when IMC exists and the pilot remains on the centre radar frequency.
Only in Australia are we forced to change to the tower frequency when below 10,000, in many cases , even though the tower controller is not radar rated. Crazy. No doubt fixed when there is an accident.
And I reckon this resistance to change is the primary reason that the multilateration system in Tasmania is not properly used in the terminal area to help reduce the chance of a CFIT.
