Admin Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 Just read an interesting article that has popped up in the Recreational Flying News section from the ATSB: Need for unambiguous local ATC procedures
DWF Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 Wotz ATC? Shouldn't worry RAAus aircraft [in most cases].
DWF Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 The Cairns RWY 15 ILS Approach chart is at: http://www.airservicesaustralia.com/aip/current/dap/BCSII01-132.pdf The ILS track is about 150deg. The missed approach procedure is to turn left onto 015deg - a turn of 135deg. The normal Missed Approach minima is 320' at about .5nm from the runway but the first aircraft commenced the MA at 1000' (just after the Outer Marker at about 3nm from the runway) so turned left early and conflicted with the following aircraft on the ILS approach. I'm not sure what the controller's separation minima is but they would be about 3nm and 1000'.
