Hi again Ik
Of course it's marked and one look at the chart shows the coastal VFR route running through it. It also shows just how close it is to the Albert Park reporting point for Essendon entry and in the direct line between MMB and APL.
I appreciate the business attraction tha strip of waterfront represents for jumpers but it still seems a ridiculous safety risk to me.
Who will pay if there is a collision? What if people on the ground are also casualties? The jump pilot and his employer, the dead pilots insurer, ASA...who?
What a dogs breakfast it will be and won't we all, pilots and parachutists, feel the heat from concerned residents driven by an out-of-control media?
I can imagine my colleagues in civil law salivating at the prospects...
