To further improve the visual characteristics of the runway holding position markings at Foxtrot, the airport has installed mandatory instruction markings pursuant to Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) Manual of Standards (MOS) Part 139 section 8.40 - Mandatory Instruction Markings.

So it wasn't even marked properly?

And why, oh why, did they not extend Twy E all the way to the threshold 13 to avoid the time wasted at the holding point halfway down the runway, waiting for others to backtrack, turn around, and launch?
