Australia ATC Sectors

Bit of a long shot, this, but I've looked all over the net including Airservices Australia and I can find nothing! Has anyone got details of or an online source for sector maps for Australian airspace please? I don't mean YMMM and YBBB FIRs; I'm talking about the actual ATC sectors within those - example of which (for EGTT airspace) is attached. Grateful in advance.

Sorry, not helpful I know, tongue definitely in cheek.

It stands for Traffic Information Broadcast by Aircraft. It’s essentially what happens when pilots become responsible for their own seperation in controlled airspace, generally because there aren’t enough ATCOs.

Large swathes of the country go TIBA at little to no notice because Airservices can’t get their s$&t in a pile.

What would be useful is a slightly larger scale map than the ones on the link Missy posted. Ie one map of the East coast between Brisbane and Melbourne with all the sectors colour differentiated. No need for all the tracks, just a broad picture of where all the sectors are. Hands up who wants to make Australia safer and create that for us all to put in our flight bags? I would but I’m useless.

TIBA is the norm over places with poorly managed or underfunded third world aviation infrastructure. Examples being Somalia, and other dodgy parts of Africa, a square of the Pacific that’s outside FIRs, and regular swathes of Australian Airspace.

If you really want an adventure you could try parsing and importing the various sections of the "Designated Airspace Handbook" (DAH)

the current one is https://www.airservicesaustralia.com..._30NOV2023.pdf (4Mb)
