Clare: There shouldn't be much to make up here. Capn Bloggs nailed the nonsense.

For all the thousands of pages of regulations and AIP material and guidance material, this is where we are in 2023:
The ERSA and the DAP diagrams for the Sunshine Coast Airport did not include holding point locations. While the ERSA was not required to show the locations of holding points, inclusion of this information reduces the potential for confusion or ambiguity around their position. Also, the marking used on the runway diagram to depict the take-off distance available was not accurate. Additionally, the CASA aerodrome manoeuvring map for Sunshine Coast Airport did not give an accurate representation of the holding points or the runway and, if compared to the ERSA, would increase confusion for pilots.
And the pilot was confused by a poorly worded and unnecessary ATC instruction.

2023.
