I visit Australia a few times a year. Last visit I couldn't fly from YMMB because I only had an AVID and not an ASIC. Now I have my new ASIC, and I can fly here again. It let me to wonder - can I do anything useful with the ASIC when flying commercially domestic or internationally? I asked today a security guy at MEL at the employee entrance to the customs area and he said if the card says AUS I would be able to enter. Having just arrived in Australia I didn't try it.

To let you know the status MIA, PAG and BHI are all friendly without an ASIC, even though formally they require them. It helps if you are specially trained to read the signs (MIA) or know how to turn door handles (others). I hope it is the same for many other country airports. The flight was YMMB YMIA YPAG YAMK Lake Eyre in flooding, then YBHI and YMMB. Can anyone advise me on a good route and a suitable intermediate stop for lunch when travelling YMMB YBAF next week? Are there commonly flown routes?

Itinerary for flight planning help. Thanks, two trips in a C182: Moorabbin to Andamooka (YAMK). I need to arrive at YAMK with enough fuel to get back, so 1 stop needs to be withing say 150 nm of YAMK. Need 1 or 2 stops on the way from YMMB to refuel and to refresh ourselves. Second trip: Moorabbin to Archerfield and back. Looking for stops to eat/refuel, and possibly with some tourist interest, or something to see from the air. Also -anyone know how I arrange overnight parking at Archerfield please? Thanks in advance for your help

Thanks, but that doesn't really answer my questions about flight planning. I can't get an ASIC in time now, so how do I deal with it?

Flight planning without an ASIC Hi, I am visiting Australia, got a SPECPL and AVID - read all the stuff on CASA website, and couldn't see why I would need an ASIC and it is hard to get from overseas. Now as I start planning my flights, I see that just about everywhere I want/need to stop - even for fuel, is a "Security Controlled Airport". 1) How can I reliably find out if I need an ASIC to land at these small airports which are security controlled - e.g. Mildura. 2) What happens if I land at a security controlled airport without an ASIC? Just for a fuel/restroom stop - maybe some food? 3) Somewhere I saw that if there are no RPT flights within 2 hours of your arrival/dep time, you don't need an ASIC - is this official? I emailed one airport operator and he laughed at me. thanks
