The darwin radar used by the RAAF is still in use by the RAAF but not by Civil. The feed still comes into Brisbane and is displayable but not allowed to be used for separation. I hear we are looking at next wet season before anything happens. If it does not get fixed, when the RAAF come to Brisbane to do the job from there, they will not be able to use it.
I am surprised that some pole climber somewhere in AsA has not just signed off on the thing for operational use like usually happens. The 'management' of the civil group around Darwin is littered with s0ft c0cks so don't expect anything to happen suddenly to change the current issues.
