The Essendon DFO was built because some slippery loan sharks, property developers and various political influences sanctioned the deal. As part of any business deal, money exchanged hands. It’s always about the money, always has been and always will be.

Look at it this way - if a local Council can forward a DA application to an Airpprt Manager of a Council owned two-bit airport for review because potentially a street light or a bloody highset house might impinge on the Airports OLS, you don’t think SOMEBODY somewhere didn’t check the DFO’s design against the vast amount of publicly available aeronautical data pertaining to Essendon airport at the click of a button?????? Ha ha ha. Yeah right. I call BOLLOCKS! And if the DFO was constructed and approved without any of those checks being done, well....well again I call BULLSHIT!! Utter bullshit. Somebody knew right from the get-go. They rolled the dice and built the infringing DFO knowing that once it was built, the champagne cracked and the plaque unveiled which was signed my some greasy Politician, the DFO was never going to be rolled back.
