From the Alice Airspace Study by OAR earlier this year;
1.4 Recommendations
1.4.1
CASA to reinforce awareness of the Aeronautical Information Regulation
and Control (AIRAC) cycle, to allow for improved planning when requesting
updates to aeronautical publications.
1.4.2
Based upon stakeholder feedback and supported by risk assessment and
modelling, the OAR has concluded that the current airspace design and level of
air traffic services provided are adequate in addressing the level of risk that exists.
Therefore the OAR does not propose to make any change to the current airspace
architecture or level of ATS provided.
1.4.3
In order to address the requirements of the AAPS 2007, CASA to review
its implementation strategy in considering the proven international best practice
airspace systems, including the outstanding NAS characteristics. This strategy
must take into account changes being proposed to airspace at General Aviation
Aerodrome Procedures (GAAP) aerodromes and where possible standardisation
of airspace at all aerodromes with Class D Control Zones (CTRs). The
implementation strategy will be finalised by CASA’s OAR in 2010.
Just FYI...
