Hi Guys,
This flight sees us taking off from Bankstown Airport (YSBK) for a flight north to Patonga via Paramatta and Hornsby. We then turn east into the beautiful Broken Bay area and track for Barrenjoey Head where we turn south to follow the coast down to Sydney Heads via Newport, Narrabeen, Long Reef and Manly. If you wish to do Harbour orbits, you need clearance to enter CTR at Long Reef. Otherwise you can continue down the coast via the Victor 1 route (not above 500') to Wollongong via Jibbon Point, Wattamulla, Stanwell Park, Thirroul, Corrimal, Wollongong (city), Port Kembla. Finally track to Wollongong airport (at Albion Park) for a full stop landing.
There are lots of challenges in this flight - GAAP radio procedures, keeping clear of Control Steps, Navigating the route, monitoring Sydney Approach and using Flight Following or Traffic Advisory services, requesting clearance into CTR for Harbour Orbits, Victor 1 Procedures, using CTAF procedures at Wollongong.
WHAT AN EVENT!
I'm requesting the following ATC support for the flight:
+ Bankstown Tower
+ Sydney Approach
The event will be held at the following times:
Friday 20th June at 8:00pm EST Sydney/10:00z
Sunday 22nd June at 3:00pm EST Sydney/5:00z
If you are interested in joining in and currently don't receive my Information Kits for the flight, please send a email to groupflights@virtualVFR.com. _________________ Regards, Paul Phibbs (VH-FIB)
