Thank you. Yes, they are powering ahead

Your company is helping make history be proud 👏

@@tacitdionysus3220 nice Observations cheers col 👍

There are seven piers for now, to be expanded to 70. Check the airport layout maps online

@@tacitdionysus3220 Thanks for the info. Appreciated.

Because it's at the end of their shift

Unfortunately no it's either mascot or this airport thank you for watching my video

Brisbane has only just put in a second large runway. A single runway can easily handle up to about 30+ million a year. The initial capacity of stage one at WSI is 10 million, ultimately expanding to 82 million with the second runway. All that information and maps of the Stage One and the final stage are easily accessible online.

Because it was at 4pm workers 3.30pm

@@David-gb3qm it's been planned for at least 40 years for this area

@@colindobson4045 I am not against this project, i am just worried for the noise polution. Mate, thanks for the video!

It depends a bit on which direction you are from the airport. For example, in line with the runway alignment will have more noise than off to a side. If you are behind hills or forest from the airport that will reduce it. The orientation and construction of your house or flat will also affect how it sounds inside. Sometimes that can be improved through insulation, and so on A good trick is to see where you are relative to the airport, then look at places in Sydney that are in roughly the same situation relative to the existing Sydney Airport. Google Earth is good for working out where that is. Then visit those places and see what the noise is like there from Sydney Airport. Lots of info and maps about expected noise levels in various areas are online. If you are concerned go to the visitor centre and/or contact those who get paid to let you know more about it.

@@tacitdionysus3220 Mate, thanks for this information, and for recommendation.

@@decepticons_destroy thank you 😊

@StealthFB22 than I done my job 🤣😅

@@colindobson4045 Oh it is? Hahahaha 😂

@StealthFB22 yeah everyone and everything is fake 🤣😅

@jason_glover probably however Adelaide doesn't have two major airports

Adelaide isn't expandable to 68 (from the present 7) piers, each with two aerobridges, plus several separate single aerobridges at some terminal corners, and lower level entry ramps for smaller commuter aircraft. Check the airport layout maps online.

For now (which will do it for 30 + million passengers a year). The second runway and additional terminals lift that to 82 million (about the same as London Heathrow airport). The current Sydney Airport does about 40-45 million) Check the airport layout maps online - 10 MAP shows the initial layout, 82 MAP shows the developed version.

@@tacitdionysus3220 rubbish! this is smaller than the busy Adelaide airport that does around 7 million a year. Look on google earth, no room for expansion!

Hopefully they build the leppington train line Extension to the aerotropolis station thanks for watching cheers col 👍

@@colindobson4045 getting the rail link to the airport from Parramatta via Glenfield is so essential I cannot believe it hasn't been started already, however, no matter how many rail links get built, Western Sydney airport is alway going to be at least an hour long journey from the city. It will be a pain where we sit down for most Sydney residents. Western Sydney is very sparsely populated and it will be decades before at least half of Sydney's population will be closer to Nancy Bird than Mascot. It will probably end up like London, where despite various airport options, most customers prefer to use Heathrow, and the alternate airports get relegated to budget airlines. I think it would be brilliant if a lot of cargo transport moves out there, because it will free-up more arrival/departure times for passenger movements at Mascot.

Only 10 minutes from my home. Anyway i am not happy, because the noise polution.

@David-gb3qm I'm at camden area probably 20 to 30mins away and the people in our area will definitely feel it as well but like I've said to other people if I don't like the noise and gets to bad I'll move away from Sydney which I was planning anyway eventually we will see

@@colindobson4045 Mate, Camden will be ok, but Bonnyrigg, Edensor Park, Penrith and other's will be 100% affected by noise polution.

When you're on site you wouldn't say that it's actually very big mate

It's how Efficient and a pleasant experience passengers have mate the look of a terminal isn't at the top of my list

Great point hopefully they build the leppington station Extension to the aerotropolis station and there is talk about a Parramatta to western Sydney airport Extension to thanks for watching cheers col 👍

Can't please everyone mate that's the idea for the viewer to get a understanding what the noise levels might be

They have a website so ask them questions you have otherwise you probably won't get answers on social media mate cheers col 👍

The runway directions are 05/23 (aligned 050 and 230 degrees). 230 degrees is actually into the south west.

There are plans to duplicate it to the other side of the metro station so the airport will have 2 terminals and 2 runways.

@@tedsmith6137 information throughout the video

Why not look up the airport layout map online. You can see the full layout, with two runways, multiple terminals, more than 150 aerobridges, and a capacity equivalent to London Heathrow, well past that of the current Sydney Airport. As for crosswinds, airliners can deal with up to 33 to 38 knot surface crosswind component (about 60 to 70 kph). As a comparison, I instructed for years at Hoxton Park airport, not far from WSI, in light aircraft restricted to 15 to 20 knots. It was a rare day that even a strong westerly straight across its 16/34 (roughly North/South runway) was not safe or possible for take-off or landing. In fact it was a lot of fun; sometimes interesting, but fun. WSI airport has a 15/23 runway. So in the 230 degrees direction, it's nicely aligned about midway between South and West, so should be an even rarer problem there.

The days when airports were important architectural statements is long gone, along with any human touches. Most new airports around the world are as utilitarian as bus terminals. Western Sydney is very much following the latest trends, including not having a control tower. Aircraft movements will be handled remotely in some office with video cameras and AI becoming a growing trend toward treating passengers as cargo to be shunted around in the cheapest manner possible. Airport check-ins are now frustrating attempts to get machines to deal with human reality and imperfections. Older airports with smiles from helpful humans are becoming a thing of the past.

@@artistjoh it's unfortunate the way the world is heading these days.

@@Xwisit Yeppers. To the money people we are just cattle to be milked on the way past.

no, the plans they obviously ended up using where the first of 1000 plans, just went back to the original of 20 years ago to save money

@GRAHAMAUS I can tell you from a reliable source dealing with marcquarie airports and pilots..that the major players will still be using mascot...qf1/2 11/12...7/8...80/81....Emirates and etihad and Qatar will use mascot for 2 aircraft each and if more than 2 they will use badgerys Creek...united will use 2 out 3 from mascot and American the same...low cost Airlines like Cebu Pacific's Air Asia...Scoot ...Fijian...Vietnam Airlines and anyone less than 2 will use badgerys Creek...China Southern will use 2 out of 3 mascot....the other at badgerys Creek...Singapore Airlines will use 2 out of 4 Mascot...any other airlines less than 2 will park at badgerys Creek...domestically will have some major routes e.g. Melbourne/ Brisbane/ Gold Coast/ Cairns out of badgery Creek and the rest will use mascot....it's called....corporate dollars 💸 💵 💲 🤑 There you have it....for now...

Not for initial operations (on about the same scale as Adelaide, or Gold Coast and Canberra combined). More are to be added. There will ultimately be about 70 piers like the 7 initial ones, plus other single aerobridges and (what appear to be) loading ramps for smaller aircraft around the reverse side of the extended terminal wings. Don't take my word for it, search for the airport layout maps online. 10 MAP shows the initial layout, 82 MAP shows the final layout.

Based on what? Can you see through fog? I can't. But infra-red cameras can.

You do know they have technology for fog in a lot of newer airports, this being one of them.

Reggie,It looks modern to me.

A lot of people complaining about the look I couldn't care less I don't have a problem with the look of the terminal I'm would be more concerned about service of the terminal when it opens to the public happy flying mate 👍

Well they did start on the planning around 1974.

@@tedsmith6137 😂😂

in the middle of timbucktoo, a place where they have more foggy days than the present Sydney airport.

Yes I don't understand why people are so negative I mean is this airport really going Ruin their lives even before it opens Australians these days are complainers at least you have a positive comment thank for watching cheers col 👍

On the Cumberland plain, about equidistant between the Western Sydney cities of Penrith, Blacktown, Liverpool and Camden/Campbelltown. Each of those cities has a population between 200,000 and 400,000 people. Including them, Western Sydney in total has a population greater than the rest of Sydney, and more industry and higher growth. Google earth is always a bit behind reality, but the initial construction is already visible in satellite view. Airport layout maps are available online - the 10 MAP version shows the initial version (opening at the end of 2026 with a single runway and handling capacity of 10 million passengers a year) - the 82 MAP version shows the final version with the second runway and multiple terminals and a capacity of 82 million a year (about the same as London Heathrow, and twice the current Sydney Airport's pre-Covid numbers) From Day One it will have a full Cat IIIB instrument landing system allowing aircraft to land in very low visibility, like fog (much more so than at the current Sydney Airport which only has Cat II systems, with significantly poorer visibility limitations).

@AUmarcus there is information throughout the video and there isn't a traditional control tower
