Description

By far our most popular of all the weekly events, on any given Monday you'll find the famous "J-Curve" between Melbourne and Sydney well serviced by both pilots and ATC. **Pilot Briefing** We recommend new and experienced pilots alike watch the Milk Run Monday [Pilot Briefing Video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNOThIn8Vc8) before flying in the weekly event to prepare yourself for the frenetic four hours. The video includes explanations of: * Connecting, flight planning, pre-flight, and receiving an airways clearance via voice/PDC * Compliance with Towbar Disconnect Point (TDP) assignments at Melbourne (YMML) during push back * En-route sequencing expectations and examples * ODALE re-routes inbound Sydney (YSSY) * Compliance with specific STAR procedures * Independent Visual Approaches at Sydney (YSSY) * Executing go-arounds
