Archerfield overflights and Univat Route

For pilots wishing to transit YBAF, ATC must be advised at the VFR approach points of TAR, PKR, GON or TVT by using the phrase 'Transit details', with requested tracking and level. CTR clearance will be subject to ATC and possible delays may be experienced. Pilots need to comply with arrivals procedures from the VFR approach points unless instructed otherwise by ATC.

There is a very narrow VFR route outside of YBAF CTR called the UNIVAT VFR ROUTE. This route runs from approximately the brickworks to the University of Queensland. The route is in Class G airspace with overlaying Class C lower limit at 1,000 ft, and the YBBN CTR located to the immediate north of the route. It is advised that pilots using this route contact YBAF TWR to advise of intentions.
