Many thanks to you normh for the info you provided - this is really valuable. I've been trying to find the airspace study for Realm. It is interesting that the report indicates that AAL specifically blocked any application to temporarily breach RTCC/PANS-OPS. Firstly, they don,t have the authority ...

Apparently they're now looking at direct flights to India.
Couldnt get the direct US flights, so going for a lesser option. Way to go Adelaide lol.



We really must be struggling to attract international airlines if we're starting to think about Delhi being our next destination.

The state ...

Brick and stone buildings are generally much easier to justify retention as you're usually left with a lot more original material, even after a full restoration. With a shed though, after you've replaced the roof and the walls and some of the frame, is what's left still heritage?


Just like the ...

All of the privatised airports are obliged to make "ex gratia" payments in lieu of rates and land tax. This isn't usually problematic, but occasionally has been the subject of dispute - most notably at Launceston Airport . In that case, an independent valuer was brought in to determine a reasonable ...

A couple of news pieces...

Santos has extended its sponsorship of the TDU for another three years:

And Mike Turtur will step down as race director after next year's event:

Some great suggestions.

The problem with going too far afield (e.g. Mount Gambier) is the need for the riders and support staff to get back to the Hilton Hotel each night with enough time for recovery, bike maintenance, etc, etc before the next day's racing. It's been said many times before, but ...

As per the approved Major Development Plan for this project, the hotel is located between the 25 and 30 Australian Noise Exposure Forecast contours for the Airport, which means the development is "conditionally acceptable" in accordance with Australian Standard AS2021-2015. This essentially means ...

I don't know how long the Adelaide Airport has had the upgraded bathrooms, but they are fantastic. They have ditched the disgusting horrible Dyson Airblades for an easy to use under the mirror soap, water and drying system. It is simply fantastic. WD to Adelaide Airport. I am a very happy man ...

I hope this is just another example of poor journalism from the Murdoch press, or have people on the eastern seaboard started seeing us on the same league as Wagga Wagga, Launceston and Mackay?


I'd say both. But I wouldn't read too much into it... I was reading a News.com.au article this ...

Y'all could also refer to the major development plan for this project, currently available on the Adelaide Airport website...

"Car parking for hotel guests will be provided in the Multi Level Car Park." (Section 4.1 - page 15)

Obviously during the curfew. Can someone explain how the curfew actually works? On what grounds can planes land/take off during the curfew? Have planes (esp international planes) ever had to land at interstate airports as they were not allowed to land here during the curfew hours?


Certain types ...

From a Canberra perspective... there are Coles and Woolies (and Aldi) at one end, and the small IGA, Spar or other random brand at the local shops at the other end, but not much else in between. There's no real Foodland-type equivalent, apart from some larger IGAs and a handful of Supabarns (many of ...

Wasn't that already the case anyway that three flights each week would be serviced by the Dreamliner all year round?

No, the original announcement was Dreamliner only during this summer until 25 March 2018.

Anyone remember when Johnny Rockets came to Adelaide?

Sure do. Circa 1998? I had a friend who worked there. Don't think it lasted too long, did it?

I also remember around the same time there was bar nearby that offered you to toss a coin when bought a round of drinks and if you called heads ...

The maths isn’t ‘interesting’ - it’s entirely unremarkable. It’s just basic maths.

Parts of the ‘no’ brigade tried to push for referendum rules, where a majority in a majority of states was needed to change the law - every state voted yes.

Parts of the ‘no’ brigade were looking to sink it by ...
