My Champers Fright Planner friend says it be a 1031nm sector.
Maybe PH TGT but not KG TGT


For the more ETOPS-challenged amongst us, what would be the applicable figures for the 60min divert business?? ie. speeds etc.
240 nm, 250nm or 270 nm, depending on marque of Dash used.

And why the hell wouldn't the site be serviced from AD or closer still, DN??

Politics to be sure!
They did service TGT from Darwin for many years.

Why service it from PER? Because of the He who pays the fiddler calls the tune principal. The customer wanted a service ex PER, so, like any sensible service provider, NJS gave them a service ex PER.

Seems simple really. And, despite the time taken in a DH8/F50, I'm sure it'd be better on one aircraft than mainline PER to ADL, ADL to ASP, charter ASP to TGT.
