walrus Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 (edited) Looking at the YMMB ERSA entry and Moorabbin Airport website, it appears that outside tower hours the area is covered by class G airspace. Is there anything that would stop an RAA aircraft from using the airport out of tower hours? I may have a passenger to drop off. Has anyone done this ?

RossK Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Recreational Aircraft need PPR, so you may as well call them and ask. Going to have to be on the ground before 8:00am though, or after 19:00 on weekends. Or have a GA licence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walrus Posted February 16, 2022 Author Share Posted February 16, 2022 (edited) Talk about customer service.......NOT. Tried to call them three times and all I get is a voicemail divert. I tried calling the ARO who won't tell me anything, he just refers me to the office. Could i be forgiven for thinking that operators are doing everything possible to drive customers away?

Flying_higher Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Check the YMMB website for charges. Last time I looked there was a $560 (i think) parking charge for non-VH registered aircraft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walrus Posted February 16, 2022 Author Share Posted February 16, 2022 Yes, I get the message they are sending. They don't want RAA aircraft at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the consequence of some people using airports without paying. If you can talk to the General Manager Aviation my guess is that he'd be OK and nil fees.
