Don't confuse passengers with aircraft movements. If Mt Isa were to be doing 160K, that puts it not far behind Bris and Melbourne

Show me your movement rates to prove this.


Aircraft Movements - Launceston Airport Change
Year end 30 June (thousands) 2007 06 to 07
Regular public transport 9.7 2.1%
General Aviation 4.8 (12.7%)
Total 14.5 (3.3%)
These are not acft movement rates.

No confusion, if the website provided aircraft movement data i would have obviously provided it.
Someone is confused?

Mount Isa Website Facts and Figures

Mount Isa Airport operates:

• Domestic RPT services, provided by Qantas
• Regional Domestic services, operated by ******, both scheduled and charter
• In addition there are many General Aviation operators based at Mount Isa Airport

Key passenger statistics:

• 163, 000 passenger movements in the financial year 2006/07.
• Growth in passengers from 2005/06 to 2006/07: 18.34%
• Average annual growth rate over 6 years (from 2001/02 to 2006/07): 15.42%
Go to the APAL website and see how many PAX they pump through gates, I think its a little bit more than Mt.Isa............................

Thread drift, but I await campdoag's figures

I heard back in Jan or Feb that another controller had been selected for LT TWR, but may be some delay in arrival due release from another area of AsA. Has that controller not arrived yet?

That controller is due to be in Lt by Jan at the latest, due to being unable to be released from current duties.

Stationair, Roger et al,

Friday clearance (assuming no hiccups), Tuesday, back to the dolcet tones

That is of course as long as the 'cease-fire' holds

This on the ABC. I thought Sandilands was a Crikey reporter.

Has a go at what the report didn't mention.

ABC The Drum Unleashed - Cost cutting provokes foggy stuff-up

But nothing about it on his blog??

Are they not all done during tower hours now? I think they are but may be misguided.

Jaba, correct

Unless, (as was the case here), they are running VERY late .

Not pointing any fingers or anything, but why did the B738 decide to hold where they did?

Tower closes at 2200 local EST, tower can stay open for longer if requested but that's pretty rare. Usually if any are running late its CTAF procedures for them!
