	Profile: Dick Smith - Money - Business - Home - smh.com.au
		Smith, a university dropout who worked as a radio repairer and in a factory, built his Dick Smith Electronics chain up to 60 shops with 500 staff, then sold it to Woolworths in 1982 and invested the proceeds in Sydney office buildings and industrial property.
		Smith, a former chairman of the Civil Aviation Safety Authority, is outspoken in his criticism of Australia's air space regulation, sending out media releases, setting up a website and sending his "Unsafe Skies" presentation to every politician in Australia.
		Smith says turnover has halved, to $20 million, because it is increasingly difficult to find Australian manufacturing companies that are not foreign-owned, and the brand is being dropped from the shelves of the supermarket giants.

	Dick Smith :: Sunday Profile
		Dick Smith - Sunday Profile on ABC Local Radio, this weekend at 9, after the news.
		No one would loan me money because I was Dick Smith, with such a common name, 23 years of age and I opened my first business, Dick Smith's at the Big Bear Supermarket at Neutral Bay and I didn't realise that everyone had gone broke there and so they wouldn't even give me credit.
		With Dick Smith Foods I was on every second of the day on A Current Affair and Today Tonight but I could never get any run on the ABC and at the time of my aviation reform the report especially on ABC News and Current Affairs were just totally biased.
