Did you say "far-Kurnell" when you saw them?

Question For clearance contact delivery on 133.8

Can't say I've noticed "DELIVERY" giving out clearances before - who is doing that?

Used to be called "Clearance Delivery". Now just shortened to "delivery" to fall in with ICAO procedures.

Still done from the tower on 133.8. This phrase is put on the ATIS at the moment due to an error in the latest ERSA and various charts that shows 126.5 as the delivery frequency. 126.5 is the Ground West frequency. Notams have been issued and will be corrected in the next issue of ERSA and charts.

Regards.

So you're hoping the pilots actually read the Notams correctly for the next 3 months?


Now before any of you pilots get all defensive about the above tongue in cheek statement, we've had numerous occasions where the pilots ask if the full length of 16R is avbl with reference to Notams that start at 2300 at night...it seems they can't be bothered working out when the Notam is actually valid and instead assume (incorrectly) that it's started in the middle of the day
