    Skysite wants to hear from VFR operators in NW Qld who may be affected by our launch and landing, as well as any other high-altitude operators in the area.

    The issue

    • Proposed high-altitude test flights planned between August and November 2022.
    • Launching from Cloncurry and operating in the Stratosphere above NW Qld around 60,000 feet.
    • Drifting “weather balloon” style parachute landing in NW Qld.
