Downunder Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 I'll need to be on my toes around here......quite a mix and match! 1
kgwilson Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 It looks busy but takes in about 6 degrees of longitude and 4 degrees of latitude so it's a pretty big area for a VFR aircraft at 100 knots so plenty of time to change frequencies. 4 CTAFS & 2 Centre frequencies isn't too bad in a 60,000 square mile area. 1
Downunder Posted June 23, 2020 Author Posted June 23, 2020 Does look more crowded using an IFR chart. I normally fly on ozrunways "open street map", flipping to WAC and Topo occasionally. The "ERC Low" as pictured gives a very good overview of the frequency and boundary. PCA, the QNH boundaries..... 1
rgmwa Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 I landed there a while back. There was quite a lot of activity with RPT and Bungle Bungle scenic flights but quite OK, especially with Ozrunways. Probably much less traffic at the moment anyway.
Doug McCullough Posted June 27, 2020 Posted June 27, 2020 Flying into Kununurra is not a problem, however, if you want to fly around the Bungle Bungle, there is a section in ERSA under Special Procedures on this. When I did it, it was also advised to go and have a chat with one of the local tour operators which I did and they were particularly helpful. For the Bungle Bungle scenic leg I input GPS way points on my AvPlan. This made flying the scenic route very easy.
Downunder Posted June 27, 2020 Author Posted June 27, 2020 Did it yesterday Doug. Tell us about your last flight I did both (looked at special procedures and spoke to a local pilot), however there are very few flying tourists at the moment and had it all to myself...
