No worries, in that case plug 123.800 into your scanner and pending your location you will get it live

I would like to go and get some photos and video and I was wondering, what is the best way to find out when they are using runway 03?
Cheers
Perth ATIS - 9476 8800
If you dont know what an ATIS is: it's a recorded message to pilots giving information of the airfield - What runways are in use, Wind Speed/Direction, Temperature, Air Pressure, Cloud Cover, and any other important information they need to know.
So Ring that number, and if it says Runway 03 - you're in business.

Someone pretty high up in FESA was the one that told me it was the airports ICV however they called it an FCP....
From the CASA document, it's pretty clear that it's not an ICV. Its function is entirely different to that of an ICV. That's why it's not called an ICV but an FCP instead.
