Update 7 - WSI Implementation update

CASA ACP Approval and AIRAC Publication Deferral

The Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) has approved the Airspace Change Proposal (ACP) for Western Sydney International Airport (WSI) Detailed Design.

This approval confirms the updated airspace design that was shared in October 2025.

Airservices is now finalising the editorial details of the draft Visual Terminal Chart (VTC). Once complete, the VTC will be published on this website.

In December, we advised industry that the AIRAC effective date has been adjusted from 11 July 2026 to 9 July 2026. See Aeronautical Information Circular (AIC) H50/25 (LINK) for more information.
