Post by Infernal »

Here is a very good site showing what every wants to see up side that funny looking tower they have at Sydney.

BK Tower

SY Tower

SY TCU
http://hoore.com/helo/tcu/

(TCU is Terminal Control Unit, and is located in a separate building to the Tower and Ground Controller, the TCU is home to the APP and DEP controller, and in Sydney's case houses the Sydney Directors East and West, Sydney Approach North and South, Sydney Departures, and Sydney Arrivals Controller)

technically they do, but you are correct. Air Services Australia is incharge of the towers - but CASA are incharge of saftey overall, so they do play a part
