TIBA south of BN. Possibly the world's longest NOTAM. The ATCs operating the airspace surrounding the TIBA airspace are going to have a tough day, alternate routes, different traffic patterns, more traffic, different callsigns and different coordination requirements (to usual).

TIBA south of BN. Possibly the world's longest NOTAM. The ATCs operating the airspace surrounding the TIBA airspace are going to have a tough day, alternate routes, different traffic patterns, more traffic, different callsigns and different coordination requirements (to usual).

But wait, there's more. Many of the suggested diversion routes to avoid TIBA airspace goes through three of the sector volumes that itself are operating at reduced capacity.

[Gentle_flyer]

Using TCAS as a prime defence and as a consequence in the target level of safety is a disgrace and compromises all concepts and principles of air traffic control…



Fourth world country….



The Board and Executive of AsA should be summarily sacked for doing it…



The Board and Executive of CASA should be summarily sacked for allowing it…



The Board and Executive of ATSB should be summarily sacked for not identifying and highlighting the unmitigated risks….



May God forgive them for they know not what they’re doing…because no human will or ever should….



The total lack of integrity dictates referral to the NACC.

[PoppaJo]

Jetstar 400 SYD-OOL looks like it’s tracking to Fiji!

[KRviator]

I've said it before - If TIBA "Is safe" now, such that ASA can propose it, and CASA will approve its' regular use, then "it's safe" for everyday use and we can get rid of the vast majority of ATCO's. Can't we? TIBA is either "safe" or it's not. If CASA allows it - when their overarching goal is "the safety of air navigation at all costs" - why bother having ATC separate us anyway?

I do hope all the terminal monitors around the country show "DELAYED DUE ATC SHORT STAFFING" It's the only way the SLF will become aware of just how bad things are...For those up the pointy end, if you're getting long in the tooth, don't extend, don't use your discretion to complete a flight beyond your rostered hours if you're delayed downroute. Put the ball squarely back on the Company to lean on CASA and ASA to fix this.

[Icarus2001]

Perhaps our on board PAs should start reflecting the reality of this man made situation?

[neville_nobody]

I've said it before - If TIBA "Is safe" now, such that ASA can propose it, and CASA will approve its' regular use, then "it's safe" for everyday use and we can get rid of the vast majority of ATCO's. Can't we? TIBA is either "safe" or it's not. If CASA allows it - when their overarching goal is "the safety of air navigation at all costs" - why bother having ATC separate us anyway?

Yep brought to you by the same clowns who approve SODPROPS and LAHSO. The real issue with CASA is that noone is ever responsible for anything. It has been suggested before on here but CASA need to be blown up completely and replaced by a government department who has a minister in charge. At least then they are on the hook when there is a mid air collision because right now all that will happen is that there will be a investigation which will blame the PICs for failing to see and avoid at 1000knots closing speed.

[brokenagain]

Perhaps our on board PAs should start reflecting the reality of this man made situation?

Completely agree!

”We’re delayed because Airservices Australia has mismanaged the retention and recruitment of air traffic controllers and as such they don’t have enough controllers to manage the airspace safely”.

[No Idea Either]

”We’re delayed because Airservices Australia has mismanaged the retention and recruitment of air traffic controllers and as such they don’t have enough controllers to manage the airspace safely”.

that’s perfect Brokenagain, it’s not the ATCO’s on the line, it’s management. Think I’ll use that one………

[jj232]

ASA management are fully responsible for the current situation, remember it wasn’t long ago they had the nerve argue they were 100 controllers over staffed. How much worse must things get before the board and the executive are sacked?

[framer]

I think it was eight weeks ago they said this:
Airservices employs more than 900 ATCs, 97 per cent of which are in operational roles. Airservices only requires about 800 ATCs to fully staff the ATC network,” said a spokesperson for Airservices in a statement.
Sounds like they have about 100 spare controllers, I think the minister should ask them to call them in for some compulsory overtime.

[Chronic Snoozer]

It’s all perfectly safe. Except for known unknowns.

​​​​​​CASA views the current use of contingency management practices as unsustainable and is actively engaging directly with Airservices Australia (AA) to assist them to address the underlying drivers so that they can deliver services to the expected level. Whilst the contingency practices used do provide an acceptable level of safety performance at the location level, the widespread regular use of contingency practices across the entire system may introduce additional risk which will need to be monitored. CASA intend to address the root cause of the issues raised, through a combination of surveillance (key focus areas), enforcement and direct consultation.

Less surveillance and consultation and more enforcement would be appreciated.

[brokenagain]

Cairns and Townsville getting the TIBA treatment tonight.

[sunnySA]

It’s all perfectly safe. Except for known unknowns. Less surveillance and consultation and more enforcement would be appreciated.
Hopefully the CASA surveillance team were knocking on the glass door of Brisbane Centre at 5:30m this morning to surveil the transition to TIBA.

Why do some of the AsA Contingency Charts have route structures and other don't? Please explain.

[Look Mum - no hands]

Maybe ASA could retrain some staff from the Office of Pointless Waypoint Renaming - apparently plently of resources there.

[KRviator]

ASA, CASA & the ATSB are right. Nothing to see here. It's Safe - because we say it is safe. Nevermind the fact we've closed off several hundred thousand cubic miles of airspace because we're chronically short of ATCO's, but if you have TCAS and a PPR number, you're good to go, self-separating in the Flight Levels at closing speeds of 1,000knots with hundreds of paying passengers behind you.

Yep, nowt to see 'ere. Moving on.

Todays airspace closures:

I feel like this has been the new normal for 15 years.

But never quite as new, or normal, as the past 18 months.

It's like nobody wants to be the first to blink.

I think AsA are running the catchphrase "These Are Not the Droids You Are Looking For" and CASA are falling for it.

Hopefully the ATCs working at reduced capacity due operational restrictions (short staffing) in the 'STRADDY A', 'STRADDY B', 'FLINDERS', 'LORD HOWE' and 'OCEAN/SYDNEY CAP' sector volumes weren't overloaded by the extra traffic flying the contingency routes. And if they were overloaded, pressured to accept additional traffic that they submitted a CAIR. I guess we'll only know in a 6 or 7 months time when a CAIR (or 15 consolidated in 1) gets published.

[dr dre]

Perhaps our on board PAs should start reflecting the reality of this man made situation?

One airline has already directed this. When Airservices found out they went to the media and had a sook about how unfair it was.

[KRviator]

One airline has already directed this. When Airservices found out they went to the media and had a sook about how unfair it was.Perhaps it's time said airline copied todays TIBA maps into Google Earth and said to the reporter "THIS is how much airspace they have closed off and we cannot safely fly though, as we can't avoid another airliner full of families! Because of that, we need to either cancel the flight, or fly around it."

I think the Huon (http://www.airservicesaustralia.com/NOTAMMAPS/current/ML/ecsstashuo_15JUN2023.pdf) & Mallee (http://www.airservicesaustralia.com/NOTAMMAPS/current/ML/ecssmle_15JUN2023.pdf) TRA's encompasses pretty much every reasonable routing between MEL and ADL and completely isolates Tasmania from RPT to the mainland... These aren't just piddly little PRD areas linked to a firing range or something small - the Huon one covers the entire state of Tasmania!

Air (no) Services are required as a condition of their licence to have and to do certain things - just as any other licence holder is required to do.

CAR 172.105 Have the management structure to enable it to provide the services covered by its licence.
CAR 172.110 Have enough suitably qualified and trained personnel to provide licenced services in accordance with published standards.
CAR 172.115 Have enough .... supervisory personnel to ensure services provided to standards.
CAR 172.145 Have a Safety Management System to ensure.... and keep it under review to ensure it operates properly.

I doubt anyone would seriously contend Air (No) Services is meeting the legal obligations of its licence(s).
Would the Chief Legal Officer of the Civil Aviation Safety Authority - or the CEO - care to provide a statement of why AirServices is not being prosecuted for any and all of its various breaches?

I'm reasonably sure CASA would prosecute Virgin or Rex if they flew a B737 with one pilot and one hostie (maybe not the protected QANTAS though).
Same thing - WHY is there no prosecution being launched.

The Air (No) Services Safety Management System requires that change be managed in accordance with a safety plan - IE all the changes in the impossibly complex NOTAMS above must have been risk analysed, and the risk mitigation strategies documented, and the resultant evaluated as safe to specified levels, the safety case to be submitted to CASA and approved by them. Would a responsible person........... no, wait, that won't work - would somebody in Airservices care to nominate the date the relevant safety case was prepared, who authorised it, when it was submitted to CASA and when and by whom in CASA it was approved, together with the file numbers so we can use an FOI request to see if any safety process was followed?


I contend that Air Services is no longer qualified to hold its approvals since the requirement is:172.030 When applicant is eligible for approval

For Subpart 172.F, an applicant is eligible to become an ATS provider if the applicant is able to comply with the requirements of Subparts 172.C and 172.D or will be able to do so if the applicant is approved.

Since the regulations above are part of Subpart 172-C and they are not being met..........................



(And yes, for the pickers of nits, I have rather shortened the form of words in the regulations rather than use all the lawyerly words but the context is correct.)

[Propstop]

As a LAME of over 57 year’s experience Australian aviation regulation in all areas is on its last gasp, a stinking steaming pile💩
Surely FAA will soon ban all American carriers from using our airspace and demote us to third world status. We should have adopted the NZ CAA regs, shut down CASA and put aviation under direct ministerial control. The next would be to re-employ only the competent.
Ban all aviation regulation management and minister from Chairman’s Lounge and Virgin equivalent.

[Advance]

Don't you feel sorry for the Minister?
Really, if she understood her responsibilities what is she going to do first?

Air (No) Services failing to comply with all manner of Air Safety Regulations in CAR 172 and arguably not meeting the conditions for holding an Air Traffic Services licence, insufficient staff, insufficient supervision, failing to meet the required standards, failing to comply with the required safety management system and on and on..............Minister King: golly, gosh, gee whizz what do I do about Airservices??

Civil Aviation Safety Authority not doing what it is supposed to do:
CASA's functions (1) CASA (http://www8.austlii.edu.au/cgi-bin/viewdoc/au/legis/cth/consol_act/caa1988154/s3.html#casa) has the function of conducting the safety regulation of the following, in accordance with this Act and the regulations:
..................................
(c) developing and promulgating appropriate, clear and concise aviation safety (http://www8.austlii.edu.au/cgi-bin/viewdoc/au/legis/cth/consol_act/caa1988154/s3.html#aviation_safety_standards) standards (http://www8.austlii.edu.au/cgi-bin/viewdoc/au/legis/cth/consol_act/caa1988154/s3.html#aviation_safety_standards);

(d) developing effective enforcement strategies to secure compliance with aviation (http://www8.austlii.edu.au/cgi-bin/viewdoc/au/legis/cth/consol_act/caa1988154/s3.html#aviation_safety_standards) safety standards (http://www8.austlii.edu.au/cgi-bin/viewdoc/au/legis/cth/consol_act/caa1988154/s3.html#aviation_safety_standards);

(e) issuing certificates (http://www8.austlii.edu.au/cgi-bin/viewdoc/au/legis/cth/consol_act/caa1988154/s3.html#certificate), licences (http://www8.austlii.edu.au/cgi-bin/viewdoc/au/legis/cth/consol_act/caa1988154/s3.html#licence), registrations and permits;

(f) conducting comprehensive aviation industry surveillance, including assessment of safety-related decisions taken by industry management at all levels for their impact on aviation safety;

(g) conducting regular reviews of the system of civil aviation safety in order to monitor the safety performance of the aviation industry, to identify safety-related trends and risk factors and to promote the development and improvement of the system;

etc etc ad nauseum but that is enough for now

CASA has issued AirServices with licences to provide ATS services to the Standards in the Manual of Standards, yep, we have Standards and we have licences, so far so good.
But AirServices is manifestly incapable and not having the required staff to deliver services to the requrired standards.
Has CASA instituted surveillance and has it noticed what the whole aviation world knows? A(n)SA is not meeting the legal requirements for staff, for supervision, for safety management, for meeting the standards.
Has CASA taken any enforcement action? How many prosecutions are before the Courts? None?
Minister King: golly, gosh, gee whizz what do I do about CASA????

Then there is ATSB
The ATSB's function is to improve safety and public confidence in the aviation, marine and rail modes of transport through excellence in:

independent investigation of transport accidents and other safety occurrences;
safety data recording, analysis and research; and
fostering safety awareness, knowledge and action.

An investigation conducted by the ATSB under the TSI Act is independent of other interests, such as commercial and regulatory ones.

Even in my wildest dreams of perfection I do not see the ATSB investigating AsA's lack of adequate services and CASA's lack of efffective action to fix the problems yet ATSB is, by design, the last safety check on the system.

Minister King: golly, gosh, gee whizz what do I do about ATSB missing in action (Ah, sorry, ATSB just might be conducting an urgent investigation, results due by 2026)

That all sounds spot on to me.
This whole ASA saga seems a problem that will take political decision making to repair.
What is to be done? It seems to me that the current mob of controllers are probably working hard in an environment that is stressful. The harder they work and the more stressed they become the more sick days they’ll take at a time where air traffic density is set to increase. I imagine there are controllers being trained but I can’t imagine that is a solution due to the lengthy time involved and ( if it’s anything like flying) the extra staff hours newbies suck up when they are learning the ropes.
The only way I can see to avoid rather embarrassing international headlines and a hit to the economy ( or heaven forbid a mid-air) is to bring in experienced controllers with training paths measured in weeks rather than years.
I fully admit zero experience in solving issues of this nature but would be interested to read people’s opinions of a way out of the current situation.
Cheers

[compressor stall]

Nothing will happen from the minister until it’s front page news.

Hopefully it’s from an interested journo not a mid air.

Are we on par with trying to crew an airliner with only 1 pilot-due operational restrictions?

bring in experienced controllers with training paths measured in weeks rather than years.

While it's quicker to bring in experienced controllers the training saving isn't anywhere near as great as as a difference between weeks and years. You might reduce it by a third overall.

Not to mention that the tighter staffing is the less capacity you have to train on the job. There is no quick fix.

Which is rather beside the point for fixing the current situation.

[Duck Pilot]

Air Traffic Controllers are like Pilots and I'm sure we think the same way with regards to professionalism, training, experience and safety.

Bottom line is that there is a chronic shortage of experienced Air Traffic Controllers and Experienced Pilots within the Australian Aviation Arena at the moment, predominately due to the rubbish salaries being paid in Australia to very experienced professionals - it's absolutely insulting!!!!!

The last major airline accident in Australia was near Lockhart River that involved a Metroliner in 2005, that was attributed to pilot error.

It's only a matter of time before we have a major airline accident in Australia due to inexperienced personnel and inadequate training, that will involve an aeroplane a lot larger than a 19 seat Metroliner!

I think a significant difference is airlines have staff rostered on call avbl to cover unplanned leave, so rarely would a flight get cancelled due to that reason. In ATC each group let's say has 20 staff,.10 are on duty already, and of the 10 that are off say there are 2 on REC, 1 on LSL, 1 on paternity, 1 away on a project, 1 on long term sick leave, then a couple are away for the days off and another couple not interested in extra OT $$s, and then that's it the cupboard is bare and airspace is turned off. So of those 10 that were off 3 years ago 2 got early retirement so now there are only 8 left anyway. Unless there is a system where u can have forced OT or have staff on call nothing can ever change. But to have staff on call requires a ton more staff and a ton more salaries.

Need more ATCs in the crisper!!
At this rate the NOF will need more staff.

[Duck Pilot]

[QUOTE=Duck Pilot;11459838]Air Traffic Controllers are like Pilots and I'm sure we think the same way with regards to professionalism, training, experience and safety.

Bottom line is that there is a chronic shortage of experienced Air Traffic Controllers and Experienced Pilots within the Australian Aviation Arena at the moment/QUOTE]

I think a significant difference is airlines have staff rostered on call avbl to cover unplanned leave, so rarely would a flight get cancelled due to that reason. In ATC each group let's say has 20 staff,.10 are on duty already, and of the 10 that are off say there are 2 on REC, 1 on LSL, 1 on paternity, 1 away on a project, 1 on long term sick leave, then a couple are away for the days off and another couple not interested in extra OT $$s, and then that's it the cupboard is bare and airspace is turned off. So of those 10 that were off 3 years ago 2 got early retirement so now there are only 8 left anyway. Unless there is a system where u can have forced OT or have staff on call nothing can ever change. But to have staff on call requires a ton more staff and a ton more salaries.

The airline I currently work for regularly cancel flights because they haven’t got crew. They parked the whole Daah 8 fleet up one occasion very recently as they didn’t have crew.

[compressor stall]

Nothing will happen from the minister until it’s front page news.

Hopefully it’s from an interested journo not a mid air.
Newsflash in the ashes.

Virgin pax chaos due ATC…..

Maybe it’s starting…

[Clinton McKenzie]

…​​the beauty of it all for Airservices management is that the financial penalties and reputational damage are all worn by the airlines.​​…and there’s no safety problem!

What’s everyone complaining about?

[PoppaJo]

So they send a few people on leave and the whole place can’t cope. So I assume this will be the norm every school hols.

[10JQKA]

How many of the ATC Sector Groups / Towers / Approach are routinely using VOCS (Voluntary On-Call System)?

None afaik.

[Advance]

There is an old joke along the lines that God and the Devil have a telephone hook up each week; this week it's God's turn to ring Nick...
G: "Hey Nick, how is it going down there?
D: "Actually God, its going great - we have an engineer down here - he's installed air conditioning and flush toilets..."
G: "Nick, you know the rules, you are not allowed engineers, send him up here."
D: "No God, we rather like what he is doing for us."
G: "Send him up here or I'll sue.
D: "And tell me God, where would you get a lawyer?"

Now with apologies to an old mate who is a lawyer and regularly posts on here - this is exactly what applies to Airservices.

Air (no) Services have the power to issue those huge and complex NOTAMS in this post but they simply do not have the expertise to understand, evaluate and quantify the risks and effects of their decisions.
Airservices is simply a service provider; its responsibilities are in the AirServices Act.
It no longer has highly experienced, current IFR heavy aircraft pilots on staff. It has no performance engineers.
And nor should it. They do not belong with a service provider.

In short, AsA promulgates these changes without having the in house expertise to understand the safety consequences for aircraft operating in all manner of weather conditions in IMC and without ATC separation services.
By what imaginary expertise do they carry out a safety case covering their actions?

I suggest Australia return to the integrated FAA model where both regulation and service provision are in the one organisation with one CEO and one responsible Minister.
The currrent system is broken.
CASA apparently knows this but what can it do?
Take AsA to court as it would a pilot? That would help!!
Suspend or Cancel AsA's operating licences? I am not sure that would get much political or public support!

In short: we have a wholly imaginary safety system. It is broke and it needs fixing.... NOW would be good.

[chimbu warrior]

The Board and Executive of AsA should be summarily sacked for doing it…

The Board and Executive of CASA should be summarily sacked for allowing it…

​​​​​​​Noble suggestion, but they would no doubt walk away with a substantial severance package and the problem would continue. If they were imprisoned (or threatened with it) things might change.

[sunnySA]

So they send a few people on leave and the whole place can’t cope. So I assume this will be the norm every school hols.
Yep, and those few people actually go on holiday, travel interstate, overseas or go on a cruise to spent time with their family and friends.

[havick]

Which is rather beside the point for fixing the current situation.

How so? It’s precisely the point

[Global Aviator]

Reading about all the crapshoot, looks like flying in from the north it’s just about at the level where it is -

All stations Australia XYZ crossing the FIR into Straya, ETA Melbourne on the hour………………..

Yes tongue in cheek but if you aren’t flying into Straya often this is starting to get confusing!

[le Pingouin]

It might fix it in future but doesn't address the problem in the short term as it will take a little more than the stroke of a pen to make the required changes.

But seriously, if the executive at ASA are not held responsible for this mess I hate to think where it ends.

At my unit, there were 2 of us when there would normally be 5 managing the busy morning peak a little while ago...its disgraceful.

[KRviator]

Pretty sure a company cannot deny you LSL. They can negotiate with you to take a portion of your LSL, but if you want to take the lot, they cannot deny your request. AL, certainly, but not LSL. At least, that's the case for us in WA.Granting and taking of long service leave
An employer cannot direct an employee who is covered by the Long Service Leave Act to take long service leave at a particular time.
Long service leave must be granted and taken as soon as reasonably practicable after it becomes due.
The employee and the employer may agree when the employee will take long service leave.
Where an employer and employee have not agreed on when the employee is to take leave, the employer cannot refuse the employee taking any period of leave to which they became entitled more than 12 months before. This leave can be taken at any time that is suitable to the employee. The employee must, however, give the employer at least 2 weeks’ notice of the period during which they intend taking leave.

Thread drift as this is a TIBA thread, the above is ATS OPR AT REDUCED CAPACITY - YMMM FIR.

[717tech]

Are Pilots/Crew refusing to entertain this? Or are they flying on into these areas?
Unfortunately, my mob hasn't given us a directive either way. But I know what I'll say when I see a relevant NOTAM.

[sunnySA]

They certainly can't deny LSL, but they can tell you it will be multiple years before it will be available....and that's fact, unfortunately.

thx that's the high sectors have u got the low ones too ?

[10JQKA]

So they send a few people on leave and the whole place can’t cope. So I assume this will be the norm every school hols.


I reckon this will be the norm until the 2032 BNE Olympics

[Icarus2001]

Why am I not seeing representatives of the AFAP, TWU, etc on the six o’clock news making lots of noise about AsA not meeting their legal obligations and also CASA not pressing them? Truly amazing,

and Civilair

[Slippery_Pete]

Air Traffic Controllers are like Pilots and I'm sure we think the same way with regards to professionalism, training, experience and safety.

Bottom line is that there is a chronic shortage of experienced Air Traffic Controllers and Experienced Pilots within the Australian Aviation Arena at the moment, predominately due to the rubbish salaries being paid in Australia to very experienced professionals - it's absolutely insulting!!!!!

The last major airline accident in Australia was near Lockhart River that involved a Metroliner in 2005, that was attributed to pilot error.

It's only a matter of time before we have a major airline accident in Australia due to inexperienced personnel and inadequate training, that will involve an aeroplane a lot larger than a 19 seat Metroliner!

I’ve been saying this for two years.

Australia’s first big hull loss is just around the corner.

And when it happens, people will be found culpable. The CASA CEO, management at ASA, Chief Pilots who allowed their aircraft to be flown through TIBA….

The entire industry and its oversight is like an episode of Yes, Minister. Imagine how much time
and money CASA have spent trying to cover their tracks and weasel out of responsibility for the whole Glen Buckley debacle. They could have apologised, offered compensation, and then spent their time on fixing the industry.

How long before a flight crew walk off the job due to ASA shortages and it hits the news?

[KRviator]

I’ve been saying this for two years.

Australia’s first big hull loss is just around the corner.

And when it happens, people will be found culpable. The CASA CEO, management at ASA, Chief Pilots who allowed their aircraft to be flown through TIBA….I don't disagree with your concern re The Next Big Thing - but there will be no one found at fault except the two poor buggers in Row 0.

They were fatigued, or they didn't deconflict with AirBumphuck flight 558 as required under TIBA Contingency procedure 5.52, chapter 69 paragraph 15 section 2 or they didn't understand the interrelationship of the ADAHRS with the stick shaker and that the 4th MEL'd system that day didn't supply the FADEC with airspeed data, or whatever other bull**** they come up with. There will always be a reason it is never the fault of anyone above the operating crew, it's the way "the system" is set up these days - to protect those whose snouts are in the trough.

In a true safety culture, they would identify such serious systemic issues but that kind of mindset is looooooong gone, sadly. All we can do to avoid starring in our very own ATSB report is use your common sense and experience to say "No". No to flying through TIBA, no to accepting a jet with multiple deferred defects, no to extending or using your discretion for the 8th time this fortnight and a hard no to coming in on OT to cover shift vacancies - no matter what side of the radio you're on.

[neville_nobody]

However in the modern era you need to be careful a safety issue is not then turned into an industrial one. This is what the real issue is here. CASA need to be standing up and protecting airspace users. It is not up to the PIC to declare TIBA unsafe it is CASA’s job. If CASA say it is safe to fly in then how as PIC do you disagree without it becoming an industrial issue?

[10JQKA]

If u read the notams they r TRA (not strictly TIBA) and u need to ring a ph number for approval in CTA, and in G u can ring same number for further info.

[MalcolmReynolds]

So the whole of Australia turns into Class G effectively. Fine. I will still fly where and when I want. Stuff ‘em!

[10JQKA]

So the whole of Australia turns into Class G effectively. Fine. I will still fly where and when I want. Stuff ‘em!

The classes of airspace don't change. The CTA part (A/C/E) is TRA, & the G is sorta kinda like a TIBA albeit u may or may not have to get phone approval ? Bit unclear that bit !

[sunnySA]

If u read the notams they r TRA (not strictly TIBA) and u need to ring a ph number for approval in CTA, and in G u can ring same number for further info.

TRA with TIBA frequencies = TIBA?

Or is it enhanced TIBA because of the dual frequency requirements?
Or is it enhanced TIBA because frequencies shown on the contingency maps aee monitored in the case of an emergency?
Or is it enhanced TIBA because of TCAS and transponders?
Or is it enhanced TIBA because aircraft may remain logged ADS-C/CPDLC?
Or is it enhanced TIBA because anti collision lights?

Perhaps these "enhancements" make it safe and allows the CASA and ASA CEOs to sleep at night.

And make sure you pay attention to the NOTAM requirements if you're operating in the underlying Class G airspace - some NOTAMs require you contact BN/ML CTR if you're operating planning on operatingIFR in G. Others require you to contact CTR if you're planning to operate in G irrespective of flight category.

Note the subtle difference...


That could just as easily be a stuff up in the NOTAM, as a genuine intended difference!

[UnderneathTheRadar]

Can I fly VFR in class E that is TRA?

[missy]

Air (no) Services are required as a condition of their licence to have and to do certain things - just as any other licence holder is required to do.

CAR 172.105 Have the management structure to enable it to provide the services covered by its licence.
CAR 172.110 Have enough suitably qualified and trained personnel to provide licenced services in accordance with published standards.
CAR 172.115 Have enough .... supervisory personnel to ensure services provided to standards.
CAR 172.145 Have a Safety Management System to ensure.... and keep it under review to ensure it operates properly.

I doubt anyone would seriously contend Air (No) Services is meeting the legal obligations of its licence(s).
Would the Chief Legal Officer of the Civil Aviation Safety Authority - or the CEO - care to provide a statement of why AirServices is not being prosecuted for any and all of its various breaches?

I'm reasonably sure CASA would prosecute Virgin or Rex if they flew a B737 with one pilot and one hostie (maybe not the protected QANTAS though).
Same thing - WHY is there no prosecution being launched.

The Air (No) Services Safety Management System requires that change be managed in accordance with a safety plan - IE all the changes in the impossibly complex NOTAMS above must have been risk analysed, and the risk mitigation strategies documented, and the resultant evaluated as safe to specified levels, the safety case to be submitted to CASA and approved by them. Would a responsible person........... no, wait, that won't work - would somebody in Airservices care to nominate the date the relevant safety case was prepared, who authorised it, when it was submitted to CASA and when and by whom in CASA it was approved, together with the file numbers so we can use an FOI request to see if any safety process was followed?


I contend that Air Services is no longer qualified to hold its approvals since the requirement is:172.030 When applicant is eligible for approval

For Subpart 172.F, an applicant is eligible to become an ATS provider if the applicant is able to comply with the requirements of Subparts 172.C and 172.D or will be able to do so if the applicant is approved.

Since the regulations above are part of Subpart 172-C and they are not being met..........................



(And yes, for the pickers of nits, I have rather shortened the form of words in the regulations rather than use all the lawyerly words but the context is correct.)
Agreed. AsA CEO has previously held roles as GM Safety and GM Air Traffic Control so he would be very familiar with all 172 rules and regulations.

[LapSap]

Agreed. AsA CEO has previously held roles as GM Safety and GM Air Traffic Control so he would be very familiar with all 172 rules and regulations.

Having sat across the other side of the AACC from him 25 years ago and recalling him being wet behind the ears and described by some as ‘dangerously ambitious’, I wouldn’t be surprised.

[10JQKA]

Agreed. AsA CEO has previously held roles as GM Safety and GM Air Traffic Control so he would be very familiar with all 172 rules and regulations.

Similarly AsA Vice Chair had the same roles within AsA then was on CASA exec and then ATSB commissioner before returning as board member so there should be nothing that is unknown within the organisation.

[Lead Balloon]

Can I fly VFR in class E that is TRA?
For safety, the NOTAM works on an odds and evens methodology: Aircraft with odd RNP specification numbers can fly VFR in an E TRA on odd days of the month; those with even RNP specification numbers on even days.

Fuggen'ell I love Government Jobsworths...
Airservices managed this issue by rerouting aircraft around the impacted airspace, causing minimal delays. Full air traffic management network service resumed as of 1.30pm Thursday, 29th JuneMeanwhile, in NAIPS....:ugh:

[jj232]

“Minimal delays” 😂 an addition 35 minutes flight time to every aircraft rerouted around the tiba!

[neville_nobody]

I'm sure if ASA had to pay for the extra fuel burn they'd find enough controllers soon enough. This is the same problems with airports. There is no penalty to the service providers if they don't do their job properly.

[Clinton McKenzie]

There is an old joke along the lines that God and the Devil have a telephone hook up each week; this week it's God's turn to ring Nick...
G: "Hey Nick, how is it going down there?
D: "Actually God, its going great - we have an engineer down here - he's installed air conditioning and flush toilets..."
G: "Nick, you know the rules, you are not allowed engineers, send him up here."
D: "No God, we rather like what he is doing for us."
G: "Send him up here or I'll sue.
D: "And tell me God, where would you get a lawyer?"

Now with apologies to an old mate who is a lawyer and regularly posts on here - this is exactly what applies to Airservices.

Air (no) Services have the power to issue those huge and complex NOTAMS in this post but they simply do not have the expertise to understand, evaluate and quantify the risks and effects of their decisions.
Airservices is simply a service provider; its responsibilities are in the AirServices Act.
It no longer has highly experienced, current IFR heavy aircraft pilots on staff. It has no performance engineers.
And nor should it. They do not belong with a service provider.

In short, AsA promulgates these changes without having the in house expertise to understand the safety consequences for aircraft operating in all manner of weather conditions in IMC and without ATC separation services.
By what imaginary expertise do they carry out a safety case covering their actions?

I suggest Australia return to the integrated FAA model where both regulation and service provision are in the one organisation with one CEO and one responsible Minister.
The currrent system is broken.
CASA apparently knows this but what can it do?
Take AsA to court as it would a pilot? That would help!!
Suspend or Cancel AsA's operating licences? I am not sure that would get much political or public support!

In short: we have a wholly imaginary safety system. It is broke and it needs fixing.... NOW would be good.There’s not a lawyer joke I haven’t been told, usually more than once, Advance!

I agree with your bottom line: We have a wholly imaginary safety system. That outcome is caused primarily by politics: A few decades of governments who have left CASA, ATSB and Airservices mostly to their own devices, provided they only ever bring good news or – in exceptional circumstances – euphemisms disguising bad news.

Everything is fine, and the short-term and unexpected challenges are being dealt with effectively. Australia’s enviable air safety record, contributed to by Australia’s world-leading air traffic control system, is caused by these agencies. If they were dysfunctional, we wouldn’t have our enviable air safety record, would we. It stands to reason. Absence of evidence in the form of mid-airs is evidence of absence of the risk of mid-airs. (Except the inconvenient, “rare operational” IFR mid-air in G near Mangalore, and that inconvenient mid-air near Gympie, involving the kinds of aircraft which share G airspace with RPT aircraft, and…).

The mechanism essential to the proper governance of these agencies has been malfunctioning for some time. There’s little effective Parliamentary scrutiny.

After each change of government I watch the major party members who staunchly defended senior public officials while in government swap seats with the major party (opposition) members who roundly criticised those officials while in opposition and – without skipping a beat – the previous staunch defenders become the new criticisers and the previous criticisers become the new staunch defenders. It’s a symbiosis in which both ‘sides’ of politics know that, ultimately, neither’s long-term interests are served by a really frank and fearless public sector revealing the very dirty laundry strewn throughout the halls of government. The senior echelons of the public sector know their longevity depends on delivering good news.

Everything is fine and any short-term and unexpected challenges are minor and being managed effectively.

This feature of the public sector is why RoboDebt survived for as long as it did.

Most of the proper Parliamentary scrutiny these days is done by cross-benchers. But they are spread way too thin. It’s like a flea on the rump of an elephant.

CASA, ATSB and Airservices are in their own mini-symbiosis. The interests of their senior echelons are served by delivering only good news about themselves and each other.

Imagine if the truth about Australia’s third-world airspace system and the causes of the deterioration actually dawned on the public. Questions would be asked of CASA and ATSB. Better for all concerned if the united message is that everything’s fine and any short-term and unexpected challenges are minor and being managed effectively and safely. Relax, Minister, everything’s under control (unless you’re in TIBA or G of course).

Imagine if the truth about the healthcare avoidance behaviours of pilots caused by fear of Avmed overreach got out. Aircraft passengers would start worrying because there’s a substantial probability that the flight crew have health issues they’re too scared to raise with health professionals. Better instead to stick with the comforting delusion that Avmed is the bastion between carnage and safety, keeping cockpits full of latter-day Neil Armstrongs.

(And all those Commonwealth-owned airports are being managed so as to promote the sound development of civil aviation and meet the current and future needs of civil aviation users, dontcha know. Just ask the airport operators and the Department responsible for administering the Airports Act.)

Suicide is the leading cause of death of young Australians. Eating disorders are killing them, too. Most of them will never be able to afford to buy a home. Literacy and numeracy levels are deteriorating. Australia has the highest per capita cocaine use in the world and is now a battle ground for competing, armed drug cartels. What a lucky country. Everything’s fine.

These outcomes are among the many reasons for Australians’ faith in politicians and public institutions being at an all time low. Most everyone has their own experience and insight into how busted ‘the government’ is.

The long term solution is inexorably happening. The major parties’ share of the primary vote is inexorably decreasing. Maybe they’ll wake up; maybe they won’t. For the time being they label themselves the ‘parties of government’ so as to suggest there are no other alternatives than Tweedle Dumb or Tweedle Dumber. It will be interesting to see if the populace falls for it, but the ever-expanding cross-bench suggests the populace won’t. (As H.L. Mencken said: Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.)

My primary fear is that when there is an aviation disaster involving an RPT hull loss, the patent self-interest of Airservices, CASA and ATSB will be served by pointing the finger at the crew and avoiding or downplaying the significance of any systemic issues. The natural response of government (of whichever recent ‘traditional’ persuasion) will be to throw more power and money at these agencies, to encourage them to redouble their efforts in the interests of aviation safety.

The system these agencies have been allowed to build creates a perverse incentive for them not to scrutinise and expose the failures in that very system, which failures cause actual reductions in safety. As you observe, Advance, the writers of these NOTAMs don’t have the expertise to assess the safety risks of what they are doing. They’re using NOTAMs as a tool to deal with a personnel management issue in Airservices, moving risks out of Airservices’ lap and creating risks (and costs) in ‘someone else’s’ lap. What the extent of those risks (and costs) are and whether the ‘someone elses’ are mitigating the risks adequately is not Airservices’ problem. It should be CASA’s problem, but what is CASA going to do about it? As you observe, Advance, any action by CASA would cause embarrassment and mayhem. Best instead to say that these are minor and unexpected issues being effectively managed (while keeping fingers crossed hoping that the diameter of the roulette wheel in the airspace shambles remains large enough to avoid a disaster).

At the moment the Parliament appears collectively incapable of seeing and doing anything substantial about what’s going on.

Fingers crossed, everyone.

“Minimal delays” 😂 an addition 35 minutes flight time to every aircraft rerouted around the tiba!
Yes, and for the ATCs operating these re-routed aircraft, different traffic patterns, more traffic, different callsigns and different coordination requirements (to usual). Another hole in the Swiss cheese.

[Traffic_Is_Er_Was]

The only way I can see to avoid rather embarrassing international headlines and a hit to the economy....... is to bring in experienced controllers pilots with training paths measured in weeks rather than years
A comment like the slightly amended one above would not be too popular on here. Amazing when the boot is on the other foot.
different callsigns
OMG...the humanity!

[Advance]

Having sat across the other side of the AACC from him 25 years ago and recalling him being wet behind the ears and described by some as ‘dangerously ambitious’, I wouldn’t be surprised.

It is not cricket to play the man instead of the ball, well, cricket used to have rules!
Whilst I shall not argue with your characterisation, let us be kind and suggest he got himself in this pickle trying to save AsA money during Covid.
Lots of mistakes then from the Shark supporter on down.

Failure to provide airspace classifications that ensure separation of IFR aircraft in IMC from each other when they can not do it themselves.
Failure to operate a world's best practice ATS system.
Insufficient staff to provide the minimal service AsA has opted to provide, and minimal supervision as well.
Hugely complex NOTAMS issued at very short notice which many line pilots simply do not have the time to decipher and risk their jobs if they reject a flight.
The unfolding debacle with Airspace management (or lack of it) in the Sydney basin.
The dysfunctional safety structure of AsA vis a vis CASA and the Department. No functional safety oversight and enforcement, no political control or responsibility.
Decisions being taken by people without the qualifications and experience to analyse the safety impacts of those decisions.

If ever there were links in a safety chain or holes in James Reason's swiss cheese, they exist right now and unless somebody takes some truly serious action the outcome is inevitable.

[sunnySA]

How do any of these (apart from the last two, and that's tenuous) have anything to do with this discussion? None of them were caused by a shortage of ATC or by airspace being downgraded.
Yes, but given Advance has signed out of the discussion, but (obviously) has a keen interest or lifetime passion for aviation, I think they were saying that Australian Airspace management and Australian ATC are a shadow of what they could and should be.
Failure to provide airspace classifications that ensure separation of IFR aircraft in IMC from each other when they can not do it themselves.
Failure to operate a world's best practice ATS system. Does Seminole VH-JQF, Travelair VH-AEM fit this category. Perhaps VIC Coroner will tell us much more than the AsA and ATSB Reports.

The thread is largely about highlighting the staffing situation within Australian ATC, and how this impacts ATC and pilots.
Insufficient staff to provide the minimal service AsA has opted to provide, and minimal supervision as well.The dysfunctional safety structure of AsA vis a vis CASA and the Department. No functional safety oversight and enforcement, no political control or responsibility.Decisions being taken by people without the qualifications and experience to analyse the safety impacts of those decisions.

These are relevant. Whether you are looking at this thread as an air traffic controller or pilot (current or retired) or as someone interested in aviation, the current situation within Australian ATC doesn't have a single cause, nor a quick or easy solution.

[longtermatc-career]

Ahhh yeah beg to differ...ASA management...the one true cause.
You are correct however when you say, no easy fix...the place has been cactus for years...50 recruits won't make any difference any time soon.
If we allegedly have 100 excess staff why are we desperately trying to recruit 50....seriously what a joke.
I absolutely love my job as an ATC, have done for decades but the organisation lost me 15 years ago...

separation of IFR aircraft in IMC from each other when they can not do it themselves.
When they cannot do it themselves, or when they don't do it themselves? There were six other aircraft operating at MNG at that time. None of them hit each other. There's been IFR training over MNG for decades, and many other places, both before and after ATC became 'responsible' for the airspace. Their staffing levels had nothing to do with it.

I took it more in the context of Failure to operate a world's best practice ATS system Is AsA ATC the best we can or could be? No. But it requires a change in mindset to service excellence rather than trying to provide the cheapest service possible. Operational experience has been stripped from AsA, Operational support has been stripped from AsA, Safety support has been stripped from AsA, all under the stewardship of the current CEO, who was an air traffic controller.

And meanwhile, more airspace with Operational Restrictions.

Duck a couple of honest questions…

In your mind -

a/. what were the lessons from VH-TNP?

b/. Why could a similar event not occur with surveillance?

In my mind it happened with MNG…..

I consider the ATSB report into the midair a farce….

Either all IFRs separated or AsA gets out of G completely …. And let ADSB IN do it all

Duck,

when you understand how different people think, if you are not willing to explain the thoughts behind your comments, then in my mind it reduces your words to just gratuitous letters, ie like pissing into the wind..

I’m not a pilot but from your statement I,m assuming you are lucky yo have a chief pilot who is intelligent and curious…

[Duck Pilot]

GF,
Read the accident report and you should be able to understand my logic.

I think there may have also been procedural ATC surveillance charges implemented in Class E airspace for IFR aircraft as a result of the accident investigation.

Why does it take 4 hours to analyse this rubbish and my sign on time is only 1 hour prior to departure?

The AIP and NOTAM requirements doesn’t mandate additional fuel requirements when TIBA operates exists, specifically with regards to holding/delays with regards to TIBA operations.

Why does it take 4 hours to analyse this rubbish and my sign on time is only 1 hour prior to departure?
The AIP and NOTAM requirements doesn’t mandate additional fuel requirements when TIBA operates exists, specifically with regards to holding/delays with regards to TIBA operations.

The Contingency Maps are inconsistent, some have ATS route structures, other don't, NOTAM reference ATS routes so seems logical that ATS routes should be displayed.
Given the current number of TRAs, there should be an interactive map that can display multiple TRAs on a single map. If AsA are not providing an ATC Service, then as a minimum they should be providing a pre-flight FIS (Flight Information Service) that assists the pilots. Feel your pain DP.

Yep don't have time for this ****. It's like they purposely make this as difficult as possible so when the inevitable happens they can just point at the crew and say we told you... It's all your fault.
Load up on fuel and don't fly in TIBA. Simple really.

When I asked some controllers what CIVILAIR (the air traffic controllers union) was doing, they all looked embarrassed…some thought it had become the paid political broadcaster for Airservices….surely not…Has the profession sunk so low now that people in dayglo jackets holding a STOP/SLOW sign are called traffic controllers???

How pathetic has Civil Air and the controllers become? Catherine the Great must have tracked them DCT TO EUNIC!

How pathetic has Civil Air and the controllers become? Catherine the Great must have tracked them DCT TO EUNIC!


Civilair put out a media release in February which is the one that has been quoted this last week on various media outlets.
Also AFAP have a lengthy news item on the topic which I linked on a previous post.

MEDIA RELEASE 28 February 2023

AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL STAFFING

Civil Air is the association representing the professional, technical, and industrial needs of Australian Air Traffic Controllers and Air Traffic Control Supporting Staff.

Recent reports have highlighted the staffing shortfall within air traffic control, and the constant reliance on overtime leading to increased levels of fatigue and work/life balance issues for our members. In addition, the staffing shortfall has created consequent unfair pressure upon those who continue to provide professional operational services to the industry.

The COVID-19 pandemic shut down national and international borders and significantly altered the aviation landscape from March 2020.

In July 2021, Airservices offered a Retirement Incentive Scheme (RIS) to its air traffic services staff. 138 Air Traffic Service staff took this offer between 30 August 2021 and 17 June 2022. Of the 138, at least 124 were operational Air
Traffic Controllers. We estimate that RIS removed approximately 13.7% Air Traffic Controllers from rosters around Australia.

Personal leave is a direct result of removing workforce resilience (eg. RIS), traffic returning to pre-Covid levels earlier than anticipated and the constant requirement for overtime.

Civil Air wrote to Airservices to voice our concerns that the RIS would remove experienced ATC staff from rosters across the country. In response, Airservices advised Civil Air that they would not jeopardise safety and also advised that Workforce Deployment “has a plan” for staffing.

On 28 June 2022, Civil Air communicated these concerns to the regulator, the Civil Aviation Safety Authority. It is a requirement under the Civil Aviation Safety Regulations 1998 for an air traffic service provider to have a sufficient number of suitably qualified Air Traffic Control staff.

Civil Air are in continuous communication with Airservices to address these challenges in order to achieve adequate staffing and reduce the negative impact on our members.

“Unplanned leave”

Recent media reports have quoted Airservices as being critical about the level of ‘unplanned leave’ being taken by ATCs. Airservices management have blamed airline service interruptions on ATCs taking an increased volume of
“unplanned leave”, rather than their own lack of workforce planning/resource allocation.

To put this into context, for the next 6 weeks (between 25 February and 31March 2023), there are currently 1,296 shifts presently vacant or already allocated to staff on overtime. This equates to 12% of shifts across Australia being unfilled at the time of roster publication.

This is before any impact of potential unplanned personal leave. Covering these unfilled shifts will require overtime and thus reduce the number of available staff to cover any subsequent personal leave taken. Airservices report an increase to 20.6 shifts of personal leave taken per annum, up from 14 shifts per annum pre-Pandemic. An increase of 6 shifts per annum, in the context of a pandemic that, until recently, required mandatory isolation for positive cases
appears appropriate.

Further, it is relevant to note that ATCs have a regulatory requirement not to work unless medically fit for duty.
Data obtained by Civil Air for the period 1 December 2022 to 31 January 2023 demonstrates a very clear shortfall in the number of required staff, with recorded overtime hours far exceeding the number of hours lost to unplanned
leave.

Civilair put out a media release in February which is the one that has been quoted this last week on various media outlets.
Also AFAP have a lengthy news item on the topic which I linked on a previous post.

Thanks, AFAP link was an interesting read.

28 February and using any calendar you'd like to nominate, Gregorian, Julian, or Hijri, its 130 days.

Perhaps Civil Air have been somewhat captured by all this, and its become the new normal. Perhaps the membership are seeing it each and every day, and the ATCs and support staff just get on with it and deal with it. Plug the holes and hopefully handover to an incoming shift.

This thread has highlighted the extent of TIBA, and the euphemism of Operational Restrictions (critical staffing shortage).

From Wikipedia
Normalization of deviance, according to American sociologist Diane Vaughan, is the process in which deviance from correct or proper behavior or rule becomes culturally normalized.

Vaughan defines the process where a clearly unsafe practice becomes considered normal if it does not immediately cause a catastrophe: "a long incubation period with early warning signs that were either misinterpreted, ignored or missed completely".

The original example cited by Vaughan is the events leading to the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster in 1986, [b]but the concept has also been applied to aviation safety, clinical practice in medicine, and the public's deviance from health measures aimed to stop the COVID-19 pandemic.

Normalization of deviance can exist in conjunction with corporate omertà where deviation from rules is held up by a code of silence surrounding the deviations or an unspoken agreement on rhetoric within a group of executives. One of the reasons Lion Air Flight 610 and Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 crashed was normalization of deviance based on a criticism of corporate omerta with a "culture of silence". my bolding

[sunnySA]

I do acknowledge that Civil Air is very reliant on volunteers stepping up to be delegate and it's a hard gig.

Civil Air's charter is to advocate for the professional, technical and industrial needs of Australian Air Traffic Controllers and ATC Support Staff. From my experience, the membership was more focused on the loss of licence insurance and industrial issues, rather than strongly advocating professional development and technical enhancements.

I'll now revert to posting TIBA/OPR Restrictions information.

You know, about half-way down the homepage of ABC News, you can submit a confidential tipoff. It's a bit out of the way, and I'm always weary about how 'confidential' these features are (and you can have your own opinions about the ABC if you want), but perhaps it's worth thinking of?

Large slab of low & high airspace TRA/TIBA in NSW/SE QLD from 11:15pm tonight

[UnderneathTheRadar]

The timing of the sudden increase in NOTAMs and associated closures is interesting.

is the proximity of the end of the financial year significant?

or have ASA just given up and are no longer even pretending to provide a service and, having tested the waters, discovered no one is really going to complain so are choosing to save the overtime & increase the ‘profit’ the exec bonuses are tied to?

the only plus side is that the controllers who still exist no longer need feel the pressure to extend or risk working fatigued any more

[Johhny Utah]

Queensland, NSW and Victorian school holidays over the last few weeks. That might have something to do with it. Then again, it may just be a coincidence...

[10JQKA]

Storm season should be interesting when wx forces tfc into TRAs !

[Clinton McKenzie]

I attended a very convivial (as usual) family get together on the weekend. During a discussion with a mature and intelligent family friend about my partner’s flight to the city where the get together was happening, the family friend made a statement about the sick leave entitlements of air traffic controllers. In context, the family friend was expressing a view about the cause of delays in flights in and out of the capital city in which the get together was happening.

It became clear that the family friend considered the belligerent behaviour of air traffic controllers to be the cause of the problem. The controllers were milking an “unlimited sick leave” entitlement, the family friend said.

That perception was the product of a carefully managed media campaign. A bit like Robodebt and all those bludgers making fraudulent dole claims. Robodebt was merely clawing back money that lazy good-for-nothing nobodies weren’t entitled to and had scammed from honest, hard-working regular Australians.

This kind of nasty PR path is well-trodden by nasty people, for a reason: It works. Scotty From Marketing knew that.

It may be that some - or, improbably, all - air traffic controllers are defrauding their employer by taking unjustified sick leave. But even if that’s true, that’s a personnel management issue which, if chronic, is a failure of personnel management by Airservices. If most of the air traffic control personnel employed by Airservices are defrauding their sick leave system, those personnel should be investigated, exposed and called to account.

An alternative explanation is that - as with Robodebt - we are witnessing a government agency spreading bull**** so as to cover up its own inadequacies, and other government agencies whose job it is to see through the first agency’s bull**** would prefer not to confront and expose that reality.

Robodebt is not an unfortunate, random event. It’s the natural consequence of what Australia’s public sector has become. Airservices is part of the public sector. So are CASA and ATSB.

Fingers crossed that the diameter of the airspace management roulette wheel remains ‘big enough’.

From the ATC Enterprise Agreement.
37. PERSONAL LEAVE AND SPECIAL LEAVE – ATC

37.1. The parties to this Agreement mutually agree that the objective of these provisions is to put in place a scheme that continuously reduces the average level of unplanned absenteeism taken per annum and that all parties should co-operate and use their best endeavours to ensure that the scheme operates to achieve that objective.

This collaborative approach acknowledges the legitimacy of paid sick leave where genuine sickness and injury occurs taking account of shift work and regulatory licensing requirements and at the same time, abuse of the sick leave entitlement is not to be countenanced.

Consistent with the provision at clause 4.2 of this Agreement, the clauses of this Agreement will be applied so that they do not reduce the benefits to an employee of the provisions of the National Employment Standard.

37.2. Sick Leave
If an employee is required to hold and exercise an air traffic control licence, they are entitled to paid sick leave as required.

37.3. The scheme includes the process for a systemic review of sick leave usage and may result in a specific review of sick leave for an individual. Such a review will involve both management and an ATC Peer. For this purpose, ATC Peers will be identified by Airservices and other parties to this Agreement to assist in reviews. In conjunction with the other parties to this Agreement, Airservices will develop a training program for both the ATC Peers and Line Managers who will conduct the reviews. The purpose of the review process is to:

(a) identify reasons for extended or continuing absences on sick leave; and

(b) propose options and/or solutions for remedying this.

37.4. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that non-operational duties will be available if an employee is unable to exercise the privileges of their Class 3 medical and is suitably fit to perform non-operational duties.

37.5. An ATC shall provide a medical certificate from a registered health practitioner or if it is not reasonably practicable to obtain a medical certificate, other evidence in accordance with the Act for absences that are longer than a single day. Absence for a rostered shift, irrespective of the length of the shift, shall be defined as a single day absence for the purposes of these provisions.

37.6. A medical certificate shall not be required for up to eight (8) single day absences due to personal illness or incapacity in any year commencing from the date this Agreement begins to operate. An ATC shall provide a medical certificate for single day absences due to personal illness or incapacity in excess of eight single day absences in any 12 month period. For the purposes of these provisions a single day absence shall include an absence for more than half the nominal shift.

37.7. If an ATC takes 10 days sick leave in a year, with or without certificate, Airservices will notify them of this fact by letter. The letter will invite the individual to contact their manager if there is anything that the employee wishes to discuss regarding their circumstances and/or to seek assistance from Airservices. This does not preclude the employee seeking early assistance from the line manager.

37.8. If an ATC is absent from work due to illness for 15 days or more in any 12 month period, Airservices shall be entitled to conduct a management review of that circumstance and any relevant matters connected with it. Such a review shall involve both management and an ATC Peer who have received appropriate training for the purpose.

37.9. If, following review, Airservices determines that the usage of sick leave is reasonable there will be no further action taken. At this time options for assistance identified as appropriate during the peer review will be offered.

37.10. If Airservices determines that the reasons for sick leave are uncertain Airservices may elect to refer the employee to a DAME for external review of validity of sick leave usage. The DAME review will be limited to ascertaining if absence is justified relating to illness or incapacity to work.

37.11. If as a consequence of receiving a report from the DAME relating to the review, Airservices concludes that sick leave usage is justified there will be no further action taken. At this time options for assistance identified during the peer review will be offered.

37.12. If Airservices considers the sick leave to be unreasonable as a result of wilful misconduct, the employee will be placed on limited sick leave as described in clause 37.14.

37.13. If sick leave usage is determined as unreasonable following either the management/peer review or as a result of DAME review, having regard to all relevant circumstances, the employee will be placed on ‘sick leave review’. Sick leave review is a process whereby the ATC’s usage of sick leave will be monitored for a three month period. During this time, Airservices will assist in any recuperation deemed necessary, but may also take action to reduce the employee’s usage of sick leave including but not limited to, requiring medical certificates for all absences and the option of non- operational duty. If, at completion of this period, sick leave has fallen within reasonable usage no further action will be taken.

37.14. If, following the sick leave review period, the level of absenteeism has not reduced, a further interview will occur and additional measures may be considered. If, after this period, the level of ongoing usage of sick leave is unreasonable, an employee may be placed on limited sick leave accrual of 15 days paid sick leave per annum for a 12 month period. An employee in this circumstance may be required to produce a certificate for all sick leave absences.

37.15. During the period of limited sick leave, sick leave beyond 15 days may be approved at management discretion. Where there is a genuine long term illness or incapacity, management approval will not be unreasonably withheld.

37.16. If, after 6 months from the commencement of the ‘sick leave review period’, sick leave usage is still unreasonable, disciplinary or fitness for duty processes may be taken.

37.17. An employee can contest the reasonableness of their placement on sick leave review and/or the measures put in place as part of the review, through the Employee Grievance Board.

37.18. This sick leave scheme does not replace Airservices existing attendance and behaviour management systems.

37.19. Special Leave

(a) If an employee is required to hold and exercise an air traffic control licence, an employee may be granted paid leave of up to three (3) days in any 12 months period for special reasons that include:

(i) Moving house;

(ii) Emergency domestic situations;

(iii) Natural disasters;

(iv) Domestic partner to attend the birth of a child;

(v) Family accident or incident; or a

(vi) Special family or cultural or religious event.

(b) An additional three (3) days leave may be granted in any 12 months period in relation to any of sub clauses (i) – (vi) above.

(c) Each case for approving leave under this clause will be considered on its merits, and leave will only be granted for the period necessary to overcome the circumstances.

37.20. Carer's leave
An employee can use 10 days each year from their personal leave for caring purposes as defined in the National Employment Standards contained in the Act.

37.21. Unpaid Carers leave
An employee (including a casual employee) may take up to two (2) days unpaid leave for each occasion where a member of an employee’s immediate family or household requires care or support because of personal illness or injury, or an unexpected emergency, if an employee has exhausted their paid personal leave entitlement.

[Bleve]

The military have known the following for thousands of years: The rate of sick parade attendances is inversely proportional to unit morale.

[12-47]

Equating this to Robodebt Clinton? Wow. You've spent far too much time working from home in that Canberra bubble.

It wasn't too long ago that an average for these guys was recorded as 11 or so sick days per annum, which when you compare it to the Monday-Friday 9-5 pen pusher class across the APS at 13.6, was a phenomenal achievement. Remember, they've got strict, legislated fitness for duty requirements, work 24/7/365 on horrendous rosters and mostly on an appallingly designed ergonomic workstation (I hear back injuries are rife).

Add to that they cover the organisational knee jerks with a minimum of fuss. Case in point was Dick's Tassie night surveillance approach experiment which saw a number of them work up to 1000 nightshifts over ten years without a single break, typically pitching up for their mornings and afternoon rotations in the ensuing days without missing a beat. Not the greatest recipe for a bulletproof immune system. Try it, even as a work from home experiment Clinton.

These stories are common across the whole organisational landscape, you need to leave Canberra for five minutes and open your eyes. Instead, you chose to draw a parallel with a program that resulted in dozens of suicides and now subject to an inquiry. Shameful.

[framer]

I hear back injuries are rife).
I have noticed over the years, in the companies I have worked for that when the shift work gets really nasty, with rosters chopping and changing, even quite young and fit pilots start having back issues. They’re not putting it on, I think there is something about sleep disruption and back problems.

I drew a valid parallel with the PR tactics.

I haven’t lived or worked in Canberra (or ‘for Canberra’) in years. You have the wrong Clinton McKenzie.

My educated guess is that my eyes have seen more ‘organisational landscapes’ than you. I see Airservices for what it is.

Civilair put out a media release in February which is the one that has been quoted this last week on various media outlets.
Also AFAP have a lengthy news item on the topic which I linked on a previous post.

MEDIA RELEASE 28 February 2023

AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL STAFFING

Civil Air is the association representing the professional, technical, and industrial needs of Australian Air Traffic Controllers and Air Traffic Control Supporting Staff.

Recent reports have highlighted the staffing shortfall within air traffic control, and the constant reliance on overtime leading to increased levels of fatigue and work/life balance issues for our members. In addition, the staffing shortfall has created consequent unfair pressure upon those who continue to provide professional operational services to the industry.

The COVID-19 pandemic shut down national and international borders and significantly altered the aviation landscape from March 2020.

In July 2021, Airservices offered a Retirement Incentive Scheme (RIS) to its air traffic services staff. 138 Air Traffic Service staff took this offer between 30 August 2021 and 17 June 2022. Of the 138, at least 124 were operational Air Traffic Controllers. We estimate that RIS removed approximately 13.7% Air Traffic Controllers from rosters around Australia.

Personal leave is a direct result of removing workforce resilience (eg. RIS), traffic returning to pre-Covid levels earlier than anticipated and the constant requirement for overtime.

Civil Air wrote to Airservices to voice our concerns that the RIS would remove experienced ATC staff from rosters across the country. In response, Airservices advised Civil Air that they would not jeopardise safety and also advised that Workforce Deployment “has a plan” for staffing.

On 28 June 2022, Civil Air communicated these concerns to the regulator, the Civil Aviation Safety Authority. It is a requirement under the Civil Aviation Safety Regulations 1998 for an air traffic service provider to have a sufficient number of suitably qualified Air Traffic Control staff.

Civil Air are in continuous communication with Airservices to address these challenges in order to achieve adequate staffing and reduce the negative impact on our members.

“Unplanned leave”

Recent media reports have quoted Airservices as being critical about the level of ‘unplanned leave’ being taken by ATCs. Airservices management have blamed airline service interruptions on ATCs taking an increased volume of “unplanned leave”, rather than their own lack of workforce planning/resource allocation.

To put this into context, for the next 6 weeks (between 25 February and 31March 2023), there are currently 1,296 shifts presently vacant or already allocated to staff on overtime. This equates to 12% of shifts across Australia being unfilled at the time of roster publication.

This is before any impact of potential unplanned personal leave. Covering these unfilled shifts will require overtime and thus reduce the number of available staff to cover any subsequent personal leave taken. Airservices report an increase to 20.6 shifts of personal leave taken per annum, up from 14 shifts per annum pre-Pandemic. An increase of 6 shifts per annum, in the context of a pandemic that, until recently, required mandatory isolation for positive cases
appears appropriate.

Further, it is relevant to note that ATCs have a regulatory requirement not to work unless medically fit for duty.
Data obtained by Civil Air for the period 1 December 2022 to 31 January 2023 demonstrates a very clear shortfall in the number of required staff, with recorded overtime hours far exceeding the number of hours lost to unplanned
leave.

Over the next 6 weeks, how many shifts are presently vacant or already allocated to staff on overtime?

I'm guessing the Civil Air press release was to counter this "exclusive" article by Lucas Baird on 19 February 2023.

The ‘alarming’ workforce trend causing flight delays
Air traffic controllers are not showing up to work at rates 44 per cent higher than before the pandemic, causing disruptions to travel operations and contributing to delays and cancellations for travellers.

In a memo to select Airservices Australia staff, obtained by The Australian Financial Review, airspace services boss Rodney Sciortino revealed a “sharp climbing trend” of unplanned leave …
AsA backgrounding a journalist and leaking a memo, I thought that was only the embittered ATCs (Firies, Engineers) who engaged in such activities!!

[Chronic Snoozer]

Yes, it's a shame the amount of overtime being worked and manning levels wasn't leaked via memo to the same journo.

This whole thread has lost its original intent. Please stop cut and pasting NOTAMS. We get it. We read them every time we go to work.

Hi, the intent of the thread is to highlight the operational risks that Australian Aviation is facing with the service providers not providing a service, not meeting their service obligations.

And this thread has elicited responses from Advance (and others) who has challenged what AsA are doing (not doing). The NOTAMs are complex, I get it and I really feel for pilots who are facing this on a daily basis. Not just Brisbane and Melbourne Centre, it's across other parts of the country and not everyone will see everything. Many TRA's are during night shifts where the traffic levels are likely to be extremely light.

I think the YBBB TRA and multiple adjacent sector groups also with Operational Restriction NOTAMs highlight the severity and seriousness of the critical staffing situation.

The posts are long, the posts are difficult to read. I get it. But try reading these very long TRA NOTAM on an iPad or an iPhone. Good luck. Swiss cheese, make it a double.

Keep up the good work, sunnySA

[we_were_inverted]

With all this talk about sick leave let me relate my (alleged) personal experience working for an (alleged government monopoly) transportation service provider.

100+ controllers get paid big $ to retire early when we are already at just below critical staffing levels . This creates huge staffing issues off the bat. To cover the shortfall, against ATC wishes the employer change rosters to add an extra day of work per fortnight.

Work life balance aside, this changed roster reduces the amount of controllers per shift. Less people doing more work. This means operating sectors combined which dramatically increase workload. I finish each shift absolutely fried. But before I finish I am asked to extend because the next shift is short because of the early retirements. Sure, I’ll extend. Help the crew out. Instantly regret the decision as I’m getting slammed by traffic operating combined sectors that were previously split. Have a scare and see a conflict later than I would like. Get home absolutely wrecked.

Trying to unwind and I get a phone call. See it is work so I ignore it. Get a text asking if i can start early tomorrow. No, sorry. Im tired. Ok well can I start later and finish later? Fine. It is my last day of the cycle and they’re short staffed and it’s going to be a busy evening so whatever. Help the team out.

Sectors combined when they previously were not. Get slammed. Tricky winds meant that base is very hard to judge. Every sequence is tight. Few hours to go. Separating and sequencing traffic until the last minute of my shift which finishes at 2300. Despite getting home close to midnight I look forward to my by this point day and a half off.

Wake up to 2 missed calls and a text. Can I give them anything? No, sorry. I’m tired. Same again next morning. They’re desperate. Anything I can do will keep airspace open. Fine I will give you 4 hours. Get in and asked to extend? No Im back at 0530 tomorrow. Get slammed for 4 hours working sectors combined that we previously had staff to work split. Regret coming in. Read an email on my break from an executive essentially saying we are slacking and it is the fault of the operational ATC that the staffing and airspace crisis is the way it is.


Have a splitting headache by the time I get home and the hubby is mad. I get an early night but cannot sleep because the new roster is the most fatiguing I have ever worked.

Back at 0530, same old story. Combined sectors. Slammed. Can I extend? My headache is worse. Stare at the ceiling again. Am I fit to work tomorrow? Not sure. Will I extend anymore? No. Am I available on my lovely 2 days off that is really about a day an a half? No. Not anymore.

That, In my opinion, is why there are so many TIBAs and TRAs

Nope, been like that for years, mostly for COBT compliance.
From my limited experience "WHEN READY FOR PUSH BACK OR TAXI CTC COORDINATOR 127.6" is used to manage the workload on Ground East 121.7, reduce the number of calls they receive and better mange the ground traffic, much the way that tugs call 127.6 with their initial request.

It can also be very effective tool when there is a probability of a runway change as it better "controls" the traffic and allows 127.6 to amend the clearance, and the Ground controllers to focus on the traffic on the taxiways.

It can also be used when Ground East and West are being done by a single controller, once again to manage workload. If Ground East and West are being done by a single controller and it is "busy" then it would be fair to say that it's because the Tower is operating on reduced staffing numbers but not enough to issue a NOTAM.

I notice Melbourne Tower does something similar from time to time but they use the Delivery frequency (127.2).

Staffing shortages are across the network, some are very obvious (TRA/TIBA), other less obvious.

If it has "been like that for years" then it should be in ERSA as a published procedure and not on the ATIS.

[noclue]

Can any ATC-ers advise what the reduced capacity is being reduced to?
Some of the NOTAMS near the Gold Coast/northern NSW often state “OPS AT REDUCED CAPACITY”. The duty ATM has often advised me that there will be no impact on my flights. Maybe I was lucky at the times I flew through but what scale is the capacity reduction?

"OPS AT REDUCED CAPACITY" NOTAMS you refer to generally include AWK NOT AVBL, SVY OPS NOT AVBL and perhaps LIMITED SIS PROVIDED.
The NOTAM gives the authority to the individual ATC to deny certain types of operations eg Survey Operations which might involve operating across traffic patterns, and often at non-standard levels eg FL152.
It also allows the Enroute sector to ask for traffic metering (extra spacing) to be applied. As an example, for flights departing YBBN for say YSSY, so rather than flights perhaps being 90 seconds apart, the spacing might be 5 minutes. The same number of flights will be depart over the day but they are likely to be spaced out further.

Actually delayed flights could result in missed connections, crews out of hours, aircraft unable to meet airport curfews eg SYD, ADL, or arriving a destination after ATC have closed for the night eg CBR

[10JQKA]

Guessing that's what the #187 post refers to about avbl staff for de-combining/splitting sectors ? Also would delay or stop non-urgent level changes and non standard high workload re-routing etc I assume ?
And maybe long pauses on a/g acknowledgments whilst they are completing other tasks others may normally do for them ?
Also maybe refraining from endless useless requests for nearer runways due running late etc etc may help ?

I understand that recently jet traffic from Sydney to Brisbane (basin ?) was restricted to one every 8 minutes. Whether this was TRA/TIBA or simply "Operational Restrictions" I don't know.
Such delays and restrictions ripple through the network and affects all agencies.

The likes of Jandakot and Archerfield reverting to G in the middle of the day (or all day) is an accident waiting to happen - as they found out 20 odd years ago when they tried closing the GAAP towers early permanently.

[missy]

The likes of Jandakot and Archerfield reverting to G in the middle of the day (or all day) is an accident waiting to happen.
Agreed. Makes you wonder who (what level of management) is signing off these reductions in services.

[Slippery_Pete]

Agreed. Makes you wonder who (what level of management) is signing off these reductions in services.

Watch the roaches scatter once there’s a prang! It will all be finger pointing and the investigation will clearly show it was a predictable outcome.

Like all aircraft accidents, there’s nearly always a series of small decisions leading to a normalisation of deviance.

The only ones who will win will be the barristers.

No idea how Airservices are going to dig themselves out of this mess. Look at staff numbers 10 years ago v now. Hundreds less ATCs and they were short staffed even back then.
And from those 50 ATCs they're planning on training this year, you'd be lucky to get 5 rated. And that's 1/2 the number of trainees from a few years ago. And who's going to train them? Most of the experienced training staff took RIS and more have quit since then because of the toxic cesspool of a workplace. You could count the number of females in the area on one finger.

Indeed. Lack of suitably experienced Training Officers is a problem. AsA are required to have sufficient numbers of Training Officers, whether they do, or whether they are in the "right place" (location), or whether they are interested or motivated is another question.

Which particular TWR and TCU are these? Surely AsA have a responsibility to provide accurate NOTAMS.

Responsible for 11% of Australia's airspace

And 95% of the world's TIBAs

[compressor stall]

And 95% of the world's TIBAs

Careful don’t exaggerate. There are long standing TIBA around Mogadishu, Brazzaville, N’Djamena and Niamey so ASA is in good company.

[10JQKA]

Responsible for 11% of Australia's airspace

Haha, actually just re-read that, very funny and 100% correct

[chimbu warrior]

Responsible for 11% of Australia's airspace

According to their website Airservices manages 11% of the world's airspace.

“We are shocked to learn that it is us, the controllers of the nation, who are meant to be providing a service and not, as previously believed, the pilots providing the service of keeping us employed.” Explained Mr Tibason as he and his colleagues handed out slow-downs and RTA’s while simultaneously interlocking their toes.

Mr Tibason, who had originally scheduled a media conference for 0900 but delayed it 0945 at the last minute prior to yelling at our reporters for being more than thirty seconds early, explained the expectation with regards to arriving on-time.

“If we issue you with a crossing time for the STAR for example, we expect you to be there on time, and if you are on time – you can expect vectors. We will also occasionally ask you for your ETA at a particular waypoint even though you have been identified for the last three hours, so that we can disregard your estimate and provide you with an unachievable crossing time fifteen minutes later.” Said the controller who had just returned from his 15th union meeting since signing on an hour ago.

Since the opening of Uppercumbucca Wests’ new parallel runway, ASU has suffered a funding shortfall, resulting in a shortage of controllers available to staff the slots needed to effectively utilise the new runway. In addition, they have also been unable to effectively control the flow of traffic operating on the legacy runway, due to the fact that they don’t want to.

“As a short-term solution, we will be implementing a new traffic management strategy – SODSROPS, or ‘Simultaneous Opposite Direction Single Runway Operations’. Said the man from an income tax bracket much higher than our reporters.

“The concept behind SODSROPS and associated air traffic flow management is simple; we have two runways at Uppercumbucca West but at any given moment, we only have the capability of operating on one due to separation requirements. To achieve this, we close the other runway with no notice, then we depart and arrive all traffic in opposite directions on one runway. This is the most efficient way to delay flights and ensures we have time to go to the lunchroom to lick the dried food off the microwave door.” He said as he reverted the airspace to class G for smoko.

For a polarising view on this topic, the Herald reached out to the pilot union, AFAP (Almost For All Pilots). Their spokesperson, Mr Enta Prize-Bargaining offered his insights.

“The air traffic control service in this country is going down like a home-build submersible.” Said the man in charge of representing pilots of three different operators that are currently paying below minimum wage.

“We are seeing costly delays associated with the provision of traffic separation by ASU who are simply offering no explanation for their subpar service. It’s simple – ASU need to pick-up their game and provide the service they are paid to do, which is not to divert flights around TIBA airspace because the controller is too hungover to work following a late night of drinking rum and feeding Paracetamol to seagulls.” Continued Mr Prize-Bargaining who somewhat ironically was on his way home to be bossed around by his wife.

When questioned about aging software that was originally designed to operate on MS DOS, Mr Tibason explained that if the questions were to continue, the GAH would have to apply for a new interview COBT as the current timeslot had now expired.

More to come on further delays after the promulgation of this article.

Mechanics here must be so well versed with doing preflight EDTO checks now.....

[missy]

If "INVERELL A, B, C" and "GOLD COAST A, B, C, D, E, F" are TIBA so that the ATC can take a break, then wouldn't the same sector volumes be "ATS AT REDUCED CAPACITY" at other times?

[missy]

If YBBB TIBA and the airlines are using the suggested diversion routes to avoid the uncontrolled airspace then has does this play out for the ML COBT program?
