CASA vid on next week's Sydney airspace changes.

The problem with ALL the advice & presentations to date, is that they are Bankstown Focused.

 

To some extent this is understandable;

• Likely to generate the most movements
• The main rout of entry passed through Bnakstown airspace

Aircraft moving from & to the south, using the ( via Bankstown) routs  barely get a mention.

 

Even ERSA is scant on details for aircraft transiting, rather than departing/arriving, Bankstown airspace.😈

[Garfly]

No, not ALL the advice is so focused.  If you're into the hour long "Webinar" format they have THIS for you:

 

 

 

 

Meanwhile at Ballina:

Thanks Garfy,

No, not into "....hour long "Webinar"..".

Had a quick brows - very similar to the presentation (in person) we received at The Oaks, from the same crew.

Full of jargon, a lot of tangential information, not of help to VFR pilots wishing to transit the Bankstown airspace.

I still say the the overwhelming bulk of information Bankstown IN/OUT centric - which I communicated on the day.

They seemed uncomfortable with concerns raised about a possible increase in training (& other) aircraft density due to the changes to Sydney basin airspace.

No movement on requiring and standardising transponder / radio  (2 channel) when operating in the Sydney Basin.

I exited the talk/seminar, more confused than when I entered.😈

Just looking at Garmin Pilot and notice there are 4 temporary danger areas defined in the Sydney basin commencing 2am tomorrow.

Basically most of the training areas and class D are temp danger areas.

 

Obviously somebody covering their arse for the multiple f/ups that will occur.

Only problem is if you have any sort of graphical notams turned on you have very busy VNC/VTC with additional notam data overlaid making it even harder than normal to read.

I could turn graphical notams off but then I loose the reminders Aus wide.

But Air Services are covered.

A new one on Victor One:

 

 

 

Nothing much new here, and brevity seems to be the main aim of this series.

It would have helped if they'd made, and included here, a real-time video of what the complete route looks like

northbound and southbound, along with typical calls along the way.

As it is, luckily there are some V1 vids on YT including one from our own Scott  Hendry's "Flying Around" series of trip-vids.
