Plus, Anthony, 4 words. Common. Traffic. Advisory. Frequency.


CTAF is not ATC.


It doesn't need to be. Your exact quote:

You're not supposed to require any communication with anyone other
than ATC, so if you need to hear other pilots on the frequency,
there is a problem.


On the CTAF, you need to be able to be in communication with
everyone other than ATC, (meaning, hearing other pilots on frequency).
If you don't, there is a problem.

Threaded newsreaders, as well as USENET archives, are so fun
and easy to abuse.
