Radios in the Valley
Is there any reason not to implement some kind of radio policy in the swiss valley like what is going on in norway? With the amount of people who fly left off the high nose and the amount of people who track off nose and nose 3, youd have to think theyll be a collision or at least a close call at some point. It would also be nice to directly radio swiss air instead of calling them on somewhat spotty cell service. Just interested in peoples thoughts on this.

Re: [hjumper33] Radios in the Valley
This is a very interesting thought we also had.
Also because we can not ask Air Glacier to play air traffic control for us (as it is happening sometimes at present), it is not the job of them. We have been thinking on istalling fixed radios at the main exits.
Thanks, we will take this subject up at this years yearly meeting of the SBA.
