 OZ Airspace to be Restructured based on Proven Concept

New Airspace Disciplining

November 21
With the new airspace arrangements pending here in OZ CASA is educating Pilots on the new procedures - similar to that in use in the USA - by issuing all concerned with an "Inflight Guide" booklet and "movie" CD explaining the new system on November 27

There is lots of reading required by pilots operating under IFR and VFR procedures and the associated specific disciplines and then there's the CD explaining the airspace and new maps to interpret

The indications look good for an even safer sky for all who fly in "the land down-under"

Education paraphernalia is good ...trying it ..is next!
