Arrivals and tracking from the south

Entry into the YBAF CTR shall be at 1,500 ft. For arrivals from the south, pilots should plan via and report at Park Ridge Water Tower (PKR). Park Ridge Water Tower has a bright strobe light on the top and is located adjacent to the eastern side of the Mount Lindsay Highway. The YBAF TWR FREQ will be nominated on the ATIS.

From PKR, track towards YBAF CTR (approximately 337 degrees) and report crossing the Logan Motorway for ATC entry instructions.

Caution must be exercised when tracking from PKR towards YBAF, as Greenbank Firing Range restricted area (R627) is located a short distance to the west.
