as far as im aware, ive been told for firefighting services, probably closest airstrip would be drouin, which can be hard to spot but is an awesome strip, they have a website aswell
Any details for the owner to contact them? Or any closeby airports that are still operating? I'm in Longwarry, and the apparent 'Longwarry Airport' looks very closed.
Does anyone have contact details for Natya Airport?
Unfortunatley YLTV has lost me forever, aside from the many NORAD (no radio users) it seems that there are people waiting to report aircraft for bogus accusations at each step. it has unfortunatley lost me, and i will not return for a very long time.
Recently flew into Cobden and have to say its one of the few strips in Australia that i really respect. Unsealed gravel is now sealed asphalt. Keep an eye out for high rising terrain to the north and industrial factories to the south.
From the road this strip looks somewhat maintained, but it is within a farm complex and looks very private - I don't have contact details but the farm owner would need to be contacted prior to use in case of stock presence etc
A crying shame for the Island, the owners have closed access and will probably develop the land for housing. It could be a very busy airfield if it was developed to cater for the GP traffic, shame on the owners, have they no vision!
A small airfield popular with gyrocopters, RAA aircraft, GA aircraft and crop dusters. Model aeroplanes fly here occasionally, and model rockets. Rabbit hunting is available on local landcare plantation. Yabbies are caught in large dam nearby.Camping is available, tie down area, bring own pegs, shower and flushing toilet, bbq.
Only 2 minutes walk to the winery, cafe or restaurant. Outstanding staff, reasonable grass strip. 1000m so good for just about any GA. First timers should perform a precautionary flypast to get a good look at the trees & approach/departure profile required at the Southern end. Tie down cables near the hangar.
Wonderful, very very neat and tidy little ,trendy type of Terminal and and a nice neat Aero Club. It feels great out there in an Aviation type of way, great work. It has pottential
Am enquiring on behalf of a few friends. I am from glen innes. We run the 1/4 mile drags and the car shows at the local airport. Over at inverell they hold the car shows at the farm sheds just out of town. Down at armidale it is a bit like inverell. My question. Would u b open to running 1/4 mile drags and maybe carshows on your property. You would be the host of course. The group in Canberra have raised money to hold them at the airport but apparently there are concerns. No promises. Just an idea. My phone is 0413084883. Email romimsg@gmail.com . Gotta start somewhere.
This airport is not called Brisbane West. The airport so named is even further West of Toowoomba, and it is a ridiculous distance from Brisbane and extremely deceptively named

Well, here I am, just joined and already telling you what's wrong.
Please understand this is more a question than a comment. I noticed it because it's in my local area.
I notice this airstrip is named Baroco on the Brisbane VTC. The nearby settlement is Kooringal, which makes sense.
Does the airstrip go by both names perhaps?
