Mostly, the other issue is noise abatement which is why the crcuits at Jandakot are to the south and east to be over less populated areas.

If your a low wing fly and report at 1400'QNH, if your a high wing fly and report at 1600'QNH. In addition could there be a 'local rule' that high wings report west of the mast and low wings to the east or something to that effect.
What a great idea! VFR points or no VFR points......I have always maintained that hi wing and lo wing just don't mix in high traffic areas, no matter what spin you put on it. Dick is at least seeking out a change for the better here. We have had far too many mid-airs and near-misses in and around GAAP aerodromes that CASA and AA must do something here instead of just sitting on their hands.

INXS, why not ban everything with different specs to what your flying at the moment.

"Sorry, you cannot fly your A36 in here, Sir. The speed differential and your low wing flying near my C150 makes your aircraft an unaccepatble risk to my flying into this aerodrome."

Really thought that one out

Mr Smith is being somewhat hypocritical ...again... in this instance.

This was on-line yesterday but thankfully seems to have been pulled this morning. Presumably someone spoke to the reporter.
