New STARs for YBBN? [Archive]

Hi. This my first post here.

I live inland from the Gold Coast at Tamborine Mountain. I'm also a flight sim enthusiast so I know about STARs and SIds and flight plans. I often simulate approaches into YBBN from the south and use the BLAKA STAR which has always taken me to a waypoint called MOOVI which is near Movie World at Oxenford. I have seen that this is what happens in the real world too. Last week I notice a unusual flyover of Tamborine Mountain and I figured it was just an anomaly, maybe to do with weather or spacing, but it seems to have become the new approach path for flights into YBBN from the south as it is now common to see aircraft using this new approach.

Can anyone confirm this?

Thanks so much.

Not an answer to your question . But, you are talking about an ATC environment where when flying the brisbane two departure, which is to take up a radar heading after 600 feet they tell you to climb via the SID to FL300 . When all is planned to the lowest common denominator, this is the place they model on .

It’s a temporary STAR called the GUMPO arrival, only active during the World Parachuting Championships on the Gold Coast which end on the 14th October.

Maggot, you must be on the same thing. What on earth are you talking/complaining about? Or maybe it is me who cannot see the plot??
