Hi, dumb questions before I go online flying for the first time.

 

Intending to fly in se corner (Victoria / Tasmania), if there is no centre do I tune coms to unicom or centre frequency (i.e mel-tas, mel-bik) as identified on the vatpac site. (I am aware there is about three centre channels covering tasmania in real life, but I am [Mod - Happy Thoughts]uming we tune to the one identified on vatpac 120.70 I think?)

 

Sorry if this is a dumb question

If there is not atc online you would tune UNICOM and make your position reports on there.

If there is a Centre controller online, give them a call, we are normally able to provide an out of area service, if they are too busy they will let you know and then you can go to Unicom,
