Airservices is seeking industry feedback on any operational requirement for the rotating aerodrome beacon at Tamworth Airport.
Changes to MOS 139 have removed the mandatory requirement for an Aerodrome Beacon and the evolution of other aerodrome lighting and the expansion of GNSS navigation capabilities across all levels of the industry means that the historical need for an aerodrome beacon has changed considerably.
The present Tamworth aerodrome beacon is currently out of service. Airservices Australia is proposing to decommission the Tamworth Aerodrome Beacon (ABN) and remove them from operational service. Airservices has completed an internal risk assessment, consistent with our Safety Management System (SMS), for the decommissioning of the Tamworth Airport aerodrome beacons and identified a negligible impact on industry.
Request for Industry Feedback:
Airservices is seeking industry feedback to understand if there is an operational requirement or impact on removal for the Tamworth aerodrome beacon before a decision for its decommissioning can be made.
