I was in agreement with the observations you shared. Air flow over a 218m (715 ft) peak could surely still influence a helo flying at say 900ft noting there are further (lower) peaks in that area. Unless other factors become obvious, ATSB would presumably consider this.

Spot on, apologies if I gave the wrong impression.
