Icarus,

As is rw06, and the app plate shows that. MIA is aligned as the chart shows. I wasn't having a shot at the crew, it's aimed at gazumped who seems to think that QF screwed up. I think both did bloody well and it could have been very much worse.

As an aside something needs to be done about alerting crews about changing wx instead of the bs situation where it's a sole crew responsibility when in flight (other than a hazard alert). Something also needs to be done about TTFs valid for 3 hrs and frequently changing on the next 1/2 hr. Happening all too often.
