Airspace + How to get NOTAMS for Glennies
Thu, 20/05/2010 - 18:37 — VicGents,
I've received a few airspace / NOTAM questions from the central coast guys. Thought I'd repeat the answers here in case anyone's interested..........
Ant,
From a practical side, I don't think you will achieve much by calling Willy tower. Known HG/PG sites are marked on aviation maps which SHOULD give fast movers the info. Your call to tower will probably not filter back to us anyway.
Reference restricted airspace, HG/PG are NEVER allowed to fly in active restricted airspace - it's illegal.
When NOT to fly Glennies

For your info - the restricted airspace over Glennies (surface to 10,000) will be active Monday to Friday for the next two weeks. That's:
17-21 May
24-28 May
I have to pay for all my hang gliding equipment somehow, so I fly Hornets as a gig on the side. We'll be blasting through the Glennies area for the next two weeks. I had a laugh at work the other day when I saw that one of our 'holding' waypoints for the upcoming exercise is Lake St. Clair. Nope, can't be changed.
