A couple of people asked me about airspace over Marangaroo, so this is a long overdue post and I needed to look up the details again myself.
Marangaroo is an army training area, so you shouldn’t fly over the base. Beyond this there is airspace as protection from the demolitions firing range. This is a restricted area so stay out.
Details are:
- Name: R520
- Status: Conditional Status RA3: Pilots must not flight plan through the Restricted Area and clearances will not be available.
- LATERAL LIMITS: A circle of 1.5 NM radius centred on 33,25,39.4S 150,09,22.9E
- Heights: SFC - 8500 feet
- Time Limits: Week days excluding public holidays 7:30AM-4PM or as amended by NOTAM
You can see the area on the XContest maps as area R520. You can check the NOTAM for R520. You want to see...
