1.2 Recommendations
The following recommendations, observations, or opportunities to enhance services are made because of CASA’s analysis of the airspace within the aeronautical study:
Recommendation 1
CASA Aviation Safety Advisors should conduct a safety seminar at Mangalore and surrounding aerodromes with an agenda that focusses on awareness and safety for operations within the vicinity of a non-controlled aerodrome and the importance of precise and concise radio calls.
Recommendation 2
Enroute Supplement Australia entries at Mangalore, Ballarat, Latrobe Valley and Busselton be amended to remove or clarify the requirements for the addition of 1,000 FT to prescribed altitudes during practice instrument approach procedures.
Observations/Opportunity to enhance regional services.
(1) Local operators should consider the need for additional visual flight rules (VFR) approach points and/or VFR routes to enhance situational awareness using the Melbourne Visual Navigation Chart (VNC). The OAR, where appropriate, should assist operators in preparing an airspace change proposal (ACP).
(2) The Mangalore Aerodrome operator should amend the En Route Supplement Australia (ERSA) entry for Mangalore to include the flying training area used by local operators. The area should be designed to avoid the circuit area at Mangalore.
(3) The OAR should identify and arrange for the addition of gliding symbols on the Melbourne VNC (and other appropriate aeronautical information publications).
(4) The OAR will update the contact information for Danger Area D333.
