  1. I’ll just reach into my flight bag of IFR and VFR charts covering all of Australia to come up with these answers to questions like:

    Overhead Bundaberg (YBUD), climbing into Class E airspace, what frequency should be contacted for clearance?

    BN CEN 124.1
    BN CEN 121.2
    Bundaberg 124.1
    BN CEN 135.2

    Airway W636 for navigation between YBUD and YGLA is available for:

    tracking to the north only
    tracking to the south only
    tracking in both directions at all levels
    tracking in both directions OCTA only

    Airway Z84 to Bundaberg is:

    an area navigation route
    not an area navigation route
    available in Class E airspace only
    available for operations OCTA only

    At least provide the reference materials (IFR charts) so we readers can look at them. I do not maintain a worldwide coverage nor even an Australia-wide coverage, just what I need and can afford to maintain current.

    Think like a Pilot.

  2. Good reminder of the complexity of the airspace we operate in and the variety of documents we need to access to obtain complete information.
