Gotta love how one of the reasons cited for closing Jandakot is the overlapping airspace and safety concerns........... but 85% of the flying training is going to be within 3nm of the proposed airstrip to minimise noise impact.............. Am I missing something here, or is Perth already more than 3 miles away from Jandakot?. that would save a whole bunch of moving and negate some of their reasoning wouldn't it?. unless we're all going to conduct circuits at a higher alt and into some of that dangerous overlapping airspace that the 380 is going to be using.
What a load of self serving crap.
