Thankyou Mr B.

I do remember that philosophy now that you have reminded me.

For some 'obscure' reason, in Derbs, we had to remain open 24/7 to effect VHF radio comms with the DC-9 operating Darwin - Hedland, then Perth.
I think he went 'down'; on Tues., and came back 'up' on Thurs., both times in the 'wee' hours.
Didn't they have HF?

For INTL flights, o/head Derbs was a HF call to Perth FSC.

Go figure.....
Cheers
