This is strictly my opinion and my own frustration, but every time there is atc in yssy (Sydney int airport) it’s all ways using wrong runways or taxi ways which I know it’s petty and little but sometimes it seriously doesn’t make sense like north bound departures example will use runway 16L or 34R hence the Sid procedures from there saying north. But yet they put you on the opposite runway meaning you cut off traffic in the air to make the north bound airway. And another complain is fine you put me on 16R or 34L which is one of the longest runways in the world and god forbid I’m very much under weight and don’t need a full length takeoff but an intersection takeoff but no that’s not allowed even though it’s a thing IRL and some of the other airports are just as bad, whole reason why I’m upset is just because Australia never gets atc and I know it’s not as popular but when we do I love to keep the realism and yet I find it better to fly in Australia without atc honestly which I hate. I just think if your an expert server level atc I think at least a quick glimpse over the aerodome procedures for airport would be nice it means a lot to some people I know not all. Again my opinion and frustration I appreciate atc and the work they do on this game but not a fan when in Australia.
Well, I’m not speaking for every ATC in IF, but reaching out here or on discord will be appreciated if the feedback is justifyed and respectful. I’m personally eager to learn and always open for dm. There might be circumstances where the game is contradicting realism because of the sheer traffic levels on both, ground and airspace. Where these levels allow: let’s do more realism on the ES 
What you’re saying makes complete sense I myself am Australian but @Black_Bird is also right unfortunately with the level of aircraft that can be there and traffic it makes it a bit difficult but by all means work to joining IFATC and Australia can become popular
Yeah no can definitely understand that sometimes it is difficult and not fair for their work load to increase when it doesn’t need to at the end of the day yes it’s just a game. I will say it was a long time ago now but it was busy at yssy they were only using 16R for landing and departures causing mass line ups and delays but it was only one time so it’s just built up frustration from times we have had atc. I will think about joining IFATC but I don’t think I can do what they do.
Yes, I was very frustrated when arriving in Australia, both during takeoff and landing. I requested a pushback several times but the ATC wouldn’t let me move even though the ground was clear.

I also participated in the Sydney hub a few days ago as an ATC. I open the 07 branch, even if the workload needs to be increased exponentially, but I am willing. Some people are only willing to open parallel runways…
I tried to use 07 for some 330, but they insisted on using 16R…
But here, I would like to thank the pilots who took the initiative to follow the reality and apply for 16L!
Hey that’s awesome I will say I can’t remember what time it was but might have been you the atc was allowing 16L north bound departure and landings so shout out who ever that was but I’m thinking, might of been you than cause other controller ended single runway use.
Good call Mason.
