Arrivals and tracking – from the north-west via Class G

Aircraft inbound from the training area or Class G shall track via Outer Harbor (OHB) at 1,500 ft.

CAUTION: aircraft approaching from the south coastal route. Report to Parafield tower TYPE-CALLSIGN-POSITION-ALTITUDE-INTENTIONS-ATIS. Identify the Bolivar strobe, remain well south of the strobe to avoid RAAF Edinburgh restricted airspace. Track as directed and maintain 1,500 ft until given ‘visual approach’.

CAUTION: Multiple power stations near the container terminal to the NW of Torrens Island emit a continuous plume of high-temperature and high-velocity gas.  Remain clear at all times.

Tracking from the west inbound to YPPF, ATC (Adelaide Approach) may vector you via Port Adelaide (PAL) to avoid potential conflicts at OHB. In this case or tracking from the south via PAL, the inbound call format is the same.
