Went to a major southern Indian airport recently - very impressive runways and facilities.
Flew into Melbourne recently and had to do a twin NDB on 16 as the ILS was U/S. A twin NDB in an international jet airliner - seriously??? Then had to wait 40 minutes because the few parking bays available at the Tullamarine Shopping Centre (otherwise know as a terminal) were occupied. And the lines for Immigration were backed-up past the Y junction in the arrivals area.
Which country is third world? As an Aussie, I'm embarrassed.
And why doesn't 34 have an ILS? Why is the 34 VOR offset? It can't be the gradient because the 34 RNAV arrival is lined-up perfectly?
Privatisation was clearly a mistake for this airport.
