HO HO HO....
I actually started this thread becuz Oi Thort it might have bin 'important'......Well... to 'some' anyway.....'Specially those who operate into / out of Ballina NSW......in 'Fast Movers'....
(Relatively Speakin'...)

The effective 'WEF' date is almost 19 years to THE DAY that RHS actually got me 'redundo'd' outta there...(FS) ...FIS that is.
(Flight Service) & (Flight Information Service) provided by Air Traffic Services (Flight Service Officers) who USED to give FIS to ALL radio equipped aircraft - operating OCTA
(In WA anyway....the rest of OZ had long gone...)
(That's Outside Controlled Airspace) to the 'uninitiated' -

And - a "Special' service to those operating into / out of or in 'near proximity' to those AD's designated 'AFIZ'.
(Look it up if ya don't know wot they were....)

So, 'ere we are....still fighting over getting a 'suitable service' into / out of regional airports - like Ballina etc - with jet RPT traffic amongst 'lighties' ......
And, STILL NO SOLUTION!!!!

MERRY Christmas YOU Lot....and a VERY HAPPY 2021.....COVID notwithstanding..............

HO...HO...HO....
and.....Tks Again Dick, for the Big 'R'...........
I'm still enjoyin' it!!
