Interesting tumut with not much traffic gets a discreet CTAF, Cowra with the flying school and Ag ops and surrounded by Cootamundra, Young, Forbes, Parkes and others could, should have a discreet CTAF.

As part of the $12mil upgrade of Tumut (mainly for fire fighting support) Tumut now has a dedicated CTAF 126.85 instead of its old shared 126.70.

 

Tumut has low traffic levels whereas Cowra is much busier but Cowra still uses the shared 126.70 CTAF.

 

What is required to get a dedicated CTAF for Cowra ?

Is it simply a matter of all the Cowra user groups (clubs, flight schools, ag ops and maint businesses) getting together and requesting a dedicated CTAF from Air Services ?

Probably one group would need to coordinate and drive this as I do not see it happening overnight.
