A Flight Note is
not
lodged as part of theATSSARWATCH system as is the
casewith anAVFAX or NAIPSFlight Notification. It is a document, leftwith
a responsible personwhich gives full details of theplanned flight and an
expected time of arrival at thedestination. Itwouldbeused for search and
rescuepurposes should you fail to cancel theFlight Note by the time you
havenominated.
Thus a Flight Note does not provide an official SARWATCH but relies on
action by the responsibleperson calling theAusSARnumber (1800815 257)
on the form.
The recommended format, provided byAustralianSearch andRescue
(AusSAR), is shown below. The forms (calledAMSA104) are available from
theAusSARweb site atwww.amsa.gov.au/forms/index.asp. It is in theSearch
andRescue block under Flight Note.
Note that, in order tobe fully effective, complete details of the planned tracks
and landing points should be providedon the Flight Note.
