This is part of a series of flying activities adopted in the short term to address restrictions around take-offs and landing for the F-35A Lightning II aircraft while runway works are underway at RAAF Base Williamtown.
F-35A squadrons need to conduct essential air combat training to ensure operational preparedness, currency and proficiency objectives are met.
Flying is subject to change, including short notice cancellation, due to variables such as air traffic control requirements, weather, and operational availability.
Noise reduction and the environment are vital considerations in the planning and conduct of military flying. Air Force appreciates the ongoing support of the local community.
Information on aircraft noise and current flying activities is available at www.defence.gov.au/aircraftnoise or by calling 1300 DEFENCE (1300 333 362).
