Are they going to get an Air Traffic Control service in any time soon? And where will they fit the F100s once theyve landed?
Its a crowded apron as it is, and the congestion in the air and on the ground makes flying there interesting at times. As it stands aircraft are having to hold on the runway while other aircraft board passengers and taxi clear of the terminal building simply because there isnt room to taxi off while the earlier aircraft are on the apron. When youve got Virgin, Rex and QLink all inbound or outbound at similar times, plus Toll Express and one or two smaller mail runs or private flights, it gets hectic. Throw in someone else who cant get a word in edgewise on the radio between all the taxiing, departing and inbound calls, or is a bit nervous as a new student, and the traffic mix gets very very busy, very quickly.
