Jandakot Class D changes
In reading the Class D changes for the 3rd of June i have seen not that much change for a VFR flights out and in. So you can come inbound from any position but ATC have the power still to guide you through the VFR appraoch points ???? .
Also the only other change is that all i do now is tell ATC my intensions etc on my taxi call now( which there was no call to be made taxying before at YPJT) and then they will clear me to the holding point and i just say ready when there. Doesnt seem much of a change to me :/
Yet to have a chat to my instuctor about this yet as I am away and cant make the CASA siminar either that they are running.
But if there is anything else im missing please do tell

We'll be much safer taxiing around on the ground now though, at 5 knots, with separation and clearance to anywhere with a yellow line on it.
The review of pricing at GAAP airports... er sorry Class D, will be interesting when all of this has to be paid for.

(where many of the accidents were that brought all of this on)
being channelled to the same point remain inherently dangerous.
Departure calls no longer required for VFR.

A major part of having IRPs is to segregate inbound from outbound.

Have a read of AIP SUP H28/10. When taxiing you will need specific clearance to enter taxiway B. They have also defined names for the apron areas which they will want to hear in the taxi calls both on initial taxi and on clearing the runway on landing when getting taxi clearance to the appropriate apron.
Fun times ahead for all...

At least for YSBK and YMMB (haven't checked the others) you're still required to arrive via the same old (but renamed) VFR approach points.
The CASA tutorials are quite misleading in this aspect.

The whole thing is bull****. They should create a series of animated examples for different categories of operation complete with radio calls to give people an understanding for what is going on.
As it stands, i've read all the material sent to me, done the eLearning modules and still dont really have an exact idea of what to do/say come the 3rd. Im sure ill get by but it could be have been implemented better.

I am expecting the new cloud separation standard of 500 foot below cloud will work really well for VFR traffic at YPPF in the coming winter
Every VFR movement will need to be special VFR, and from what I can gather from the CASA training material, school ops will be unable to fly circuits if the vertical separation below cloud is not achievable..

There was a meeting last night at RACWA outlining stuff that was not even discussed at CASA roadshow. Departure calls are required but if you forget they wont shoot you down. I suggest you ring RACAWA of the Jandakot tower and get filled in about the changes as they are significant and have been 'refined and tailored to suit Jandakot'. They also suggest you dont use SVFR unless absolutley neccessary as it can cause huge delays for traffic due separation standards.

Which really begs the question, why change from GAAP? That is what GAAP was for, special proceedures designed to maximise operations at a specific location. Not necessarily one size fits all...

Hey , we all dont like change but this stuff has been happening for years. So we adapt as usual. I was making taxi calls at Jandakot years ago and it should be no problem.
CASA has always wanted to align themselves with international rulings but as always they fiddle with it to suit their ideas. It has been going on for years. You can jump up and down and making noise but it wont do much. At the CASA roadshow they said they would not print the new Visual pilot guides until a significant time has passed and things have settled down.. so expect more changes. My guess is that we wil have GAAPs back in 12-24 months.
My only suggestion is that some bright spark does a cheat sheet of the new calls that we can understand as the ERSA and AIP has some ambiguities. So off you go !! All this stuff should have been clarified months ago by CASA not just in a brief last week in the roadshow. I would like to see what happens the first weekend of the changes when the weekend warriors start flying. I feel sorry for the tower guys. YOU can do it!
