STy, points to note when in discussions.
I respect what u says.
Pl separate
extreme cases and norm happen in
any
country.
I am not here to win any discussions,due to limited
English.We come here just to pass time,share info with
other,pick
up some info useful to our life....
Changi AP,like other aviation hubs,serve millions of
passengers
every years.So,it will be suprising if there is no
compliants.
But ,it will be stupid for CAAS just to do any stupid
things to win any ranking.Ranking cant put foods on the
table.
Results ,ie business ,will.U check around passengers
of CAP,most of them will give u a thumb up.
Is
uncontrolled airspace in Oz is a norm or extreme
cases
The reality is it do hapen some times.
But one time misfortunate is more than enough.
Why dunt u vertify my story ,but waste the energy divert
attentions
to few passengers complaining CAP?
Few passengers will not die even they get bad services in
CAP.
But hundred of passengers
fly in oz controlled airspace without
adequate or total lack of traffic controllers guidances may
die.
SIA wrote to OZ,complaining Oz accused SIA cannot handle
flying without traffic controllers,but Oz carriers pilots can
handle without!!
Oz authority will test SIA pilots ability on flying in
uncontrolled airspace!!
I will be more than happy if the news is not true.
But so many news coming up with real names and officail
capacity,
it cant be ignored.Do u think so?

THE Civil Aviation Safety Authority is
investigating an air traffic control report that a US Learjet came
within 60 seconds of a possible collision with a Jetstar Airbus
because of confusion about uncontrolled airspace...
An Electronic Safety Incident Report of the incident, written by
the air traffic controller on duty and obtained by The Australian,
states the incident occurred last Saturday after a section of
airspace on the Melbourne to Sydney route suddenly became
unmonitored at 7.30am due to an air
traffic control staff shortage.
A shortage of controllers has increasingly forced large chunks
of Australian skies to be left unmonitored in recent months,
forcing pilots to rely on themselves and other pilots to avoid
collisions.
The ESIR indicated the declaring of uncontrolled airspace on
Saturday caused confusion among pilots of several aircraft.
The worst of these was when the pilot of an American-registered
Learjet flying from Wollongong in NSW to Melbourne baulked at
climbing up into uncontrolled airspace despite being cleared to do
so. The report says the pilot failed to climb "apparently due to
uncertainty with proximity traffic" in uncontrolled
airspace....
Mr Mason said yesterday; "Aeroplanes passing 15 miles apart may
seem like a lot ... but they are travelling so fast that in some
scenarios there can be less than 60 seconds to react and avoid an
accident. This incident is a clear example that the current system
related to (uncontrolled airspace) has an unacceptable safety
level." ..
Do u think it is a problem?Do u think I am anti--Oz by posting
this news?
the australian is a main stream newspaper selling in all major
cities,
not a unknown newspaper just selling in small town.
Besides,do u know traffic controlling in Oz is outsourced
to a private company.
The Australian take the risk of being sued.
But of course,u can treat the news as not reliable.
Neither i can prove the news are true.
i do hope it is not true.
