Yes, you do seem to be confused. You are missing the distinction between "permitted" and "intended to be used for". It is easy to find areas where aircraft are permitted to take off and land (large...

In light of various claims of folklore and nothing having changed, I figured I would dig out an old AIP and compare. I had one from 2010, which is probably a good age - not prehistoric, but old...

Is that because no-one flys out of unmarked strips, or because they don't read these updates and will continue to do what they have always done and use 126.7? Or possibly they make no calls at all at...

Which charts? Any chart? All charts?

There are airfields marked e.g. on the WAC but not on the VNC. Which frequency would you use in this case?

AIP ENR1.1 44 refers to Climb and Cruise procedures. If you are on climb or in cruise, I agree with you, but not if you are operating at an aerodrome.
