Keg you picked it, nothing worse than severe CAVOK and carrying fuel for YPAD or YPLM

Cap'n Bloggs, hard to miss since its the only NOTAM but I keep getting assurance that this approval has been issued to my employer... Hence the why YPLM and not YPEA (if the wx is dodgy we generally carry YPAD, so not likely to ever visit YPLM)

So basically I understand it all boils down to cost, strange how third world airports are far better equipped, yet one of the worlds most isolated airports, in one of the most resource rich parts of the world, with known fog issues, has budget issues.

Maybe some of the proceeds of the carbon tax could go to preventing the carriage of unnecessary fuel into Perth, that is the visionary reason behind the carbon tax...or...?

Anyway, thanks for the heads up all!
