Anyway, I have an ASIC :P
Don't need an ASIC at Cessnock, Sunfish but you DO need a hi-vis vest - though it doesn't need to be a reflective vest for night ops. Go figure...

But....where would such a vest-wearing 'operational' requirement be found, do you think? The EnRoute Supplement that all pilots should reference as part of their preflight planning, IAW the AIP? You'd think that'd be a good place for it. But no, it's certainly not in the ERSA. Nosiree, it's also buried in Cessnock's Operational Policy & User Guidelines. Because it's not as if pilots foreign to Cessnock will know to look there, or even that the damn policy exists...
