It begs the question why the hell are Townsville and Darwin still RAAF airports when they have no permanent aircraft based their?
As a former Tops man it was near thing as to who was worse, our AsA procedures t/l's or DN satco's. My favourite was the 11 mile wide corridor 40DN to abm TN one our brainiacs came up with between two restricted airpaces for the major jet routes in and out of Darwin....special
It is the same old problem for the military, they do not provide a living wage for ATC's on top of the 3 year posting rotations. I remember once visiting AMB App back in the 90's and the most senior guy there had 18 months at AMB everybody else in cluding the SATC had less than 12 months.
