I hope the ATSB report will address why the runway 09 VOR/DME or RNAV approach was not nominated by ATC. They seem to be very reluctant to use that runway even when a tailwind is present on 27. The approach to 09 is over paddocks and farms so surely noise abatement is not the issue. Also how difficult is it to design an RNAV approach onto runway 16?
