Dick and JR: You guys really need to publish your rule book, soon.
Some anarchists have published a thing called the “Melbourne Basin Visual Pilot Guide”. It says:
- “monitor Melbourne radar 135.7 when within 30nm of Melbourne (40 nm to the south and south east)”
- “Departure [from Moorabbin] Depart by extending the relevant leg of the circuit. Monitor tower frequency until clear of Moorabbin CTR. Then monitor Melbourne Radar (135.7)
- “Entering coastal route … Listen out on Melbourne Radar frequency (135.7) …
Make a radio call …”
- “Entering inland route … Listen out on Melbourne Radar frequency (135.7) …
Make a traffic call …”
There are equivalent Guides published for other places.
Shouldn’t all this monitoring and calling be on 126.7?
Please: Save us!
