Be heard, be seen, be safe at Ballina

 

 

Flying in and out of Ballina will be changing from Thursday 5 December 2019.

 

Due to the increase in air traffic in the area, all aircraft flying between the surface and 8,500 feet within 10 nautical miles will be required to make radio calls.

 

This change is to improve the situational awareness of pilots flying in and out of Ballina.

 

The Common Traffic Advisory Frequency (CTAF) at Ballina, Lismore, Casino and Evans Head will remain unchanged (124.2 MHz).

 

This information has been published via NOTAM for Ballina and a supplement for the Aeronautical Information Package (AIP). Chart updates will occur in May next year. You can also view the instrument on the Federal Register of Legislation.

 

Whilst this change is being implemented to improve pilot situational awareness, it is important to still maintain a good visual look out for other aircraft.

 

If you are unsure of what radio calls to use in uncontrolled airspace, you can view our operations and non-controlled aerodromes webpage and download our Be heard, be seen, be safe – radio procedures in non-controlled airspace booklet.
