Couple of things:
1 x ATC for ACd & SMC before 5:30 local is not prefered. Sadly ATC have bean counters running the show as well.
Ad -Astral are running a Duchess for training - did not see that on the list. Gets plenty of work as well.
Dont know how the Dec 01 A320 service is going to work when the acft are yet to arrive in YPPH
Pressure needs to be placed upon WAC to get on with improving the airport as a whole. Very poor investment in infrastrucutre over the last few years is contirbuting to problems all around the airport. From the car park to the aprons.
Departures are primarily limited by the separation requirments of the adjacent sectors airpsace. Unlike the east coast there is no J curve of radar coverage. The 3nm to 6nm (depending on type blah blah) has to be turned into 10nm by 30nm odd. With the great chunks of airpsace taken up for the RAAF to play Captain Biggles with the PC9 & Hawks in, civil guys have to wear the delays
Apart form that - its all good
