Avoiding Controlled Airspace. The distances that were specified in the old AIP have been dropped. The AIP [March 5th 2015] says that you must not actually enter CTA unless you have a clearance and, if your route takes you close to the boundary of CTA, you should either get a clearance or stay well clear of the boundary.

You should note that by day, you may use any GPS to supplement normal visual navigation techniques. By night you may use GPS to assist in navigation but the GPS you use must be certified to at least the C129a techinical standard order [TSO]. See AIP GEN 1.5 para 8.5.4.3 [table].
03/02/2012 - Page 3.13: The second paragraph now reads:
"There are some standard methods of expressing the most commonly used reference pressures used in altimetry. The atmospheric pressure at sea level is used almost exclusively in Australia and it is referred to as the QNH. Occasionally, the altimeter may be set to read the height above a particular aerodrome. An example would be an aerobatic pilot at an airshow. He/she would be very interested in the height of the aircraft above the ground rather than sea level. Of course parachutists would have more than a passing interest in height above the ground. The pressure at a particular field is referred to as QFE."
26/09/2011 - Page 5.27: the OBS setting on the right hand diagram:
