Talking

Good one Binos, Im still laughing. For the rest of you, its sad when people die like that, some days it is not good to get out of bed. Ive had many close calls in aviation but the military helped me to handle those. Sh*t happens, learn from the experience. Now going to my bunker.

Sadly I am not suprised that it devolves to this.

How about you guys take the bickering to PM.

I do not want to continue this pointless conversation. I will say this much. It is a shame that this some of you have to stoop so low to turn this thread to push your own agenda.

If there is any good to come out of this tragic event, it wont happen so long as people bicker and squabble over things here. If you have anything constructive to say, say it. We were talking about what measures, if anything, needs to be implemented to improve safety for flights operating in, out of and around YSBK. If you have nothing to say on that then please stay out of this thread. Your contribution is counter productive.

To answer you, no I am not training to be a terrroristt, I am just angry that this sad incident has been marred by invoking god. You would do well to remember that not all of us believe or wish there to be a god.

This is an aviation based forum. Lets keep it purely for discussing things aviation related. If theology interests you, you may want to consider registering at one of the many religious forums. This is not the place for it.
God has no place in aviation. Period.

Mid - Airs at YMMB and Bankstown

Question:

"Would the current alleged shortage of ATC have anything to do with these accidents?"

In the case of BK, the accident occurred outside the control zone.

Dunno - another question might be - with increased flying activity, have these GAAP airfields and associated reporting points now reached their capacity with the result that the risk of this type of thing happening is now unacceptably high?

Sunfish, no "alleged" about it, there is a shortage of ATCs.

It's pure speculation to talk about any link between the shortage and these accidents. Is this speculation useful in any way?
