Hello, This is a general question y’all find the SID to be challenging or follow them like IRL?

I usually look on FR24 to find the path that planes actually take, or, sometimes I search up charts for Sydney because their procedures can be quite weird

The procedures are quite weird ngl mainly for runway 16R but charts are not really required unless you want to find the altitude constraints for the waypoints. Also unpredictable winds in this airport which make runway changes irl more often than expected.

I use ChartFox, it CAN sometimes be a bit annoying as you have to read through alot sometimes to be able to understand what SID/STAR, etc you have to take at what time. The charts they use are from the IRL charts so, yeah. They also have charts for almost any airport and basically have charts for every thing. It’s free, you just have to create a VatSim account, which is free. Lmk if you have any questions.

I do use chartfox but I’m almost through with the departure procedure of this airport. And slightly annoying thing is some of the waypoints are missing here.
Also did you know there is a chemical factory near to the airport IRL? It’s like 3-4 kms to the east of the airport I believe.
What I’ll do is depending on the departure, I will prioritize what the chart says, and what the real aircraft did, over anything else.
Yeah me too but the procedures are as expected yk? KAMPI5 for south and KADOM1 or DEENA7 and RIC5 for North and west departures but as you would expect you need to add additional waypoints to sequence the departures and feel like some waypoints are missing due to the outdated AIRAC cycle in IF.
