Can any one remember what Australian DME was fitted to the -9. Was it the AWA Van 3?, with only distance readout. Great fun doing DME homings, no G/S readouts, all done by timing.

I think most jets have a Vmo of around 300 KIAS below 10'000. We are normally limited by the STARS to 250 KIAS.

Did TAA fit low pressure tyres to the 9 so that it could operate into WA ports against the MMA F28's, or did they just reduce the tyre pressures and take off weight?

Wasn't it necessary to reduce the tyre pressure on the -9's to operate PH - PD sectors, due to the ACN at Hedland. Did they have the range to carry PD + 60 with all seats occupied?
