Who at Airservices was responsible for undermining the Government NAS decision?

If you remove the area frequency boundaries from the charts the frequencies would be displayed in the vicinity of the outlet.

And as you well know, that's exactly what the RAPACs complained about, requesting the FIA boundaries be reintroduced.

Yes - but if you're bowling along above the MILTICOM level - IFR traffic get directed frequency transfers from ATC?

Or they are professional pilots flying above 5000' rather than private pilots on a local jolly below 5000'

Correct x 2

I fail to see the problem with the introduction of MULTICOM applying below 5000 coexisting with published FIA boundaries.

• If operating below 5000, use MULTICOM or CTAF as applicable (and if dual VHF consider also monitoring the FIA);
• if operating at or above 5000, use FIA.
