Peter Warne, a former Chair of Macquarie Group Limited, will take over as non-executive chairman from Ryan Cotton, who has headed the Virgin board since November 2020. The company has lodged a prospectus, viewable online, ahead of the planned IPO.
The document, which covers available facilities and infrastructure; strategic planning context; sustainability; and forward plans, provides a “cohesive roadmap for the airport precinct” as demand for aviation in Sydney is set to double over the next 25 years, said WSI CEO Simon Hickey.
Narrated by comedian Susie Youssef, the first episode of Airport 24/7 airs on Network 10 at 7:30pm this Thursday, with parent company Paramount saying it offers “exclusive access to restricted areas and high-pressure moments”.
The accident on 28 July 2023 killed the Jabiru’s pilot David Maddern and his wife Jan Maddern, leaving the male pilot of the Pawnee uninjured. According to the ATSB, the multiple runways and lack of a tower at the airfield were both contributing factors to the collision.
After six months of negotiation, both the Australian Federation of Air Pilots (AFAP) and Transport Workers’ Union (TWU) have filed Protected Action Ballots at Express Freighters Australia, pushing commercial pilots that perform air freight work a step closer towards industrial action.
Speaking at the airport on Wednesday, the Transport Minister said that in order to minimise noise impact on surrounding communities, reciprocal runway operations (RRO) will be prioritised at night, with a specific noise abatement procedure employed, when it is safe to do so.
