The GBAS facility that has been fitted at Sydney airport was only done as a result of research by QF technical people and urging CASA & Air Services to get with this technology. It will be useful for all operators at all airports in the Sydney basin so it's a win for everyone.
Because of the unique Sydney Airspace, GBAS was not effective.
A GBAS system is being installed at MEL, which should make quite the difference, IF they use the RNP transitions to GBAS final, and get past the tired mantra of idle descent that RNP was originally sold on (and why it failed)
Blue is DEP (is that a beautiful splay or what!)....not certain why so many approach designs to RW09, dont think I have ever landed on that end, but...
not allowed to show the missed approach designs...but if you are a driver, you know what they look like.
