I've copied this from a reply I made to another thread (which everybody ignored) about the NAS Aussie Tour. Here's another go.

I remember Boyd Munroe's stunt a few years ago, flying around in circles all day over BIK and still unable to land at SY. I can't help thinking multiple runways facilitate the flexibility the Kings spoke of at LA. Using one runway, with wake-turb separation and the difference in performance, it costs about 2 jets worth of slot to land one bug-smasher. With that in mind, regardless of it being a rule now, all it would take is a CHANGE of rule and it would be done, and f*ck the paying passenger. It might even provide a boost to GA and business aviation if they didn't have to wait for somebody to die before they could inherit a landing slot So, Dick, why isn't that one of your "characteristics"?????

Developing the theme, why does our runty f*ckw*t of a prime minister get priority over the same paying passenger. If I get the nose of my car in front of his car on a Canberra roundabout a traffic cop doesn't jump out of a bush and make me drive in circles until he's gone. First in best dressed, why not??? It could be fun to manage the changes in sequence! Us Maestro newbies are learning things can change quickly anyhow! The only real casualty would be the ridiculous movement cap at Sydney.

Absolutely mutating the theme, why does the CEO of OzCo (fictitional Oz-based multinational) fly Qantas rather than use a Bizjet. In his Bizjet he could be fellated by senior managers whle necking a bottle of Bolly and eating caviar out of a 15yo virgin's belly button. Does he endure being pawed at by bloated Qantas boilers and plastic food just so he doesn't have to decide what time he arrives in Sydney 3 days before the flight leaves???? The industry owes it to itself to ensure ridiculous managagement salaries and allowances are spent in the manner that provides the most flying jobs.
