Darwin Radar
Could some one explain why Brisbane Centre are using procedural control outside 30 miles Darwin. Some months ago, it was explained away that the feed to Brisbane Centre was damaged in the wet season. One would have thought that such a technical problem would have been resolved within 48 hrs.
Lets face it, its 2007, we have the technology, yet we have a international airport with traffic restrictions, costly delays on the ground for operators. Darwin is a proper pain in the bum to operate to. Is this a further indication that Airservices are cutting costs and not providing a service to the industry.
