The departure report out of a zone the size of bankstown is ridiculous.
I called the tower about it, they want it at 2 miles from BK. They also told me they dont want to hear it, they do absolutely nothing with it, however CASA requires it so we have to give it.
What a great and well thought out system, well done CASA. You have successfully changed nothing for VFR aircraft, and significantly slowed and complicated life for IFR aircraft at Bankstown.
Mission accomplished.
