WSI is the IATA code for the new Western Sydney Airport. There is no ICAO code for WSI at this point in time.

Should be YSLH - Sydney, Lawrence Hargrave or YSHI - Sydney, Hargrave International or even YKHI, just a boost for the trogs in the blue mountains

 

YLHI was already taken

The need for CTA access is possibly more urgent at Ballina if it becomes a Class D. 

Giving Ballina a tower would make it even more dangerous, they would then have to give it class C or D airspace status.

 

Once transited Coffs airspace - we were directed over the water - there didn't appear to be any Coffs traffic at all.  Does RPT pay really, really, really big bucks for the vast areas of private airspace around Australia.

I've flown Coffs coastal a few times. There is usually not much traffic if any at all. If there is circuit training on 21 they can send you over the water but mostly straight down the beach at 1000 or below.
