Bloggs, Glass, etc. You utterly miss the absurdity of these “U” entries; If there is no information or even contact details for such a place, then why is it even on the chart???


Thie only excuse I can think of is a tidy legal mind arguing “for completeness” - “there was once something there, but now there isn’t, well actually, there is, but we pretend we don’t even know it exists, even though it does”. “Because it officially isn’t there, even though it is, we can’t tell you it’s abandoned or unserviceable”, “we know nothing about it, even though we probably once did”.

Why doesn’t Airservices just write “here there be dragons” on the chart at such locations?

Andamooka - YAMK, elevation 250 ft., a perfect example.
