Geoff13 Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Whilst sitting at the wharf for over 2 hours today I opened up my Oz Runways to do a little bit of work on a trip I am planning. It is the first time I have seen it but every Restricted Area within SE Qld and Northern NSW was active. The map was almost totally red. Could have made for some interesting flying out there today. Even Amberly had every part of their area active. It is common to see parts of it but I have never before seen it all Active. So is there some big military exercise on or has the Queen dropped in for a visit unannounced? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happyflyer Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Did you check the restricted areas on NAIPS to see it wasn't just a glitch on Oz Runways? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhysmcc Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 It must have been your ozrunways because it wasn't all active, r639 was the only one I've come across today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDQDI Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 It must have been your ozrunways because it wasn't all active, r639 was the only one I've come across today. I'm pretty sure r559 was active when I was flying home this am, I heard something about it on area as well as saw the red shading on ozrunways. I didn't take any notice of any other areas but was only 5-10 nm off 559 so was watching it:private eyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaz3g Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 The fly boys seem to be shooting the heck out of Delamere near Tindall at the moment. Kaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryanm Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Very good reason to check the actual NOTAMs rather than relying solely on the map screen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearo Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Very good reason to check the actual NOTAMs rather than relying solely on the map screen. This is the best advice. Please follow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
