1. The irk - (to me) unnecessary successive descent clearances (no preceding IFR traffic, nothing legally lower otherwise) and/or successive advisories of RLSALT (however helpful this may be perceived to be) when on the AF 28R RNAV approach. Minimise distraction, that's all I'm asking. I've had or requested the RNAV approach more times than the RAD/NDB. Interestingly enough at Bankstown and Morrabbin, they leave you alone to fly the plane.

2. Night VFR - you can legally get down to 1500' on GAAP entry and remain OCTA if you can confirm visually clear of whatever significant obstacle on either side of track would keep it above 1500'.
