Sydney Airport (digital tower prototype) is a test or validation site rather than an operating tower. CANSO, 15 November 2019: Airservices selected Searidge to deliver a prototype 4K display with a wide view of a Sydney runway, as a first step toward possible contingency use and use at other aerodromes.
Caveat. The sources describe a prototype and an evaluation, not a service. No later notice found.
The evidence for this entry is old or comes from a single source. Treat the status as unconfirmed.
