September 21, 20205 yr I just found this fun little article and it's like something out of MFS but in real life - lots of GA's hanging out at Australias busiest airport. Talk about making the most out of this opportunity Sydney Airport COVID-19 slowdown hands hobby pilots bucket list take-off experience https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-09-21/sydney-airport-opens-to-small-planes-for-unique-opportunity/12668870 Cheers Brendon Edited September 21, 20205 yr by AntillesFlyer Brendon Isaac
September 21, 20205 yr Reminds me of the days (a while ago I must add 😂) when I did my command instrument rating out of YSBK. On almost on every return to base my instructor would ask for an ILS approach and touch and go at YSSY (whichever rwy wasn't active), and we were rarely denied it. This was obviously before the scourge of mass air travel made it impossible.
