5E All Australian aircraft — approvals and conditions for military operating areas
An Australian aircraft may only be flown in the airspace of a MOA mentioned in Schedule 2A if the pilot in command has approval for the flight from the Administering Authority mentioned in the Schedule for the area.
Note The Administering Authority may act through its agents. The pilot in command must comply with any conditions of the Administering Authority’s approval.
5F All foreign registered aircraft — approval and conditions for military operating areas and take precautions for military operating areas
(1) A foreign registered aircraft may only be flown in the airspace of a MOA mentioned in Schedule 2A that is within Australian territory if the pilot in command has approval for the flight from the Administering Authority mentioned in the Schedule for the area.
(2) A foreign registered aircraft may be flown in the airspace of a MOA mentioned in Schedule 2A that is outside Australian territory in Australian-administered airspace without the pilot in command having approval for the flight from the relevant Administering Authority mentioned in the Schedule for the area.
(3) It is recommended that for an aircraft and a MOA mentioned in subsection (2), the pilot in command take such precautions, and make such contacts, as a reasonable pilot, in the same circumstances, would take and make for an area within or over which activities dangerous to the flight of an aircraft may exist at specified times.
Note 1 Danger areas declared in Schedule 2 are typically associated with lower risk activities such as sports aviation activities or skydiving operations, and flight within them is common in Australia. MOAs, however, are intended to warn pilots of dangers associated with military exercises and training, with risk levels more commonly associated with restricted areas. Pilots of foreign registered aircraft intending to fly through an active MOA are strongly recommended to contact the Administering Authority for further information.
Note 2 If a foreign registered aircraft outside Australian territory opts to transit a MOA without an approval then ATS cannot be provided, and a new civil clearance is required to re-enter controlled airspace upon leaving the MOA.
