Flying visit
Great to find your web site with relevant information for a flying visit. Keep up the good work guys.
Flight 433
Emirates flight to Dubai - showing in departures as going to Singapore ???????
re: Runway
It certainly seems that way, and Google is known to do that. But for the definitive answer, you'd have to ask Google since its their map.
Runway
Southern end of runway is sealed and top end appears to be gravel. Are these 2 seperate time sat photos?
Charabah Airstrip
Dropped in the other day in the Foxbat. Nice Strip, sloping up towards the West. Approach was very bumpy with strong westerlies. If you overfly resort on arrival note that the resort is some 600ft higher than the Airstrip. Info says Elev. = 2200ft, but sign at airfield says 2000ft. Nice Resort. Reasonably priced, good food and friendly staff. Getting a bit old, but price / value ratio is good.
Miles airport construction start up ?
Just enquiring about the new airport to be built and when will it be operational?
How far away is it from Miles itself ?
Thank you for your help.

Grant
Thankyou.
Large slope to the north end of runway, easy to find. Very well maintained grass strip. Close to town. RDR
Top spot
Very friendly and helpful.Thank you, RDR.
Fuck Osborne
Middle of bumfuck and the wankers do random bag searches before departure. Fuckin porta-loo doesn't even work most of the time. Ivanhoe sucks balls.
Possible real location?
I've added a POI at something that looks like it might be an airstrip that's closer to Aerodrome Road.
re: Childers Airport
The aerodrome is located on Aerodrome Rd, off the Bruce Highway approximately 7 kilometres East of the township of Childers.

Fly in Fly Out

Renovation
The renovation & Extension is nearly finished..looks great!!
re: Enoggera Airport
Thank you for the update. I wonder if there was once an airport here, since it has an ICAO designator and http://sabc.org.au/knav/airport/YENO.html lists a runway 03/21. I've updated the page.
Enoggera Airport
This airport is actually a sports oval on an army base. My understanding is that the oval is a designated emergency landing zone for helicopters. I quite often see military rotary wing aircraft land here. Future development on the army base will see parts of the oval dissapear due to new building infrastructure.
re: NDB
Thank you for the update - I've removed the Brisbane NDB from the database.
re: Brindabella
Thank you - I've updated the airline's home base in the database: http://www.ourairports.com/airlines/FQ/
Runway 12
Watch for Birds over the rubbish Dump on late final to Runway 12, grass strip.
Great for both airline (passenger) and general aviation - we
Back in 1999 I was traveling to Australia for business. I managed to spend some time visiting Cairns. I flew up from Sydney on a 747-SP, walked down the jet stairs on to the apron - cool! Then later on in the week I rented a C172, VH-WHK, along with an instructor to fly up the coastline sight seeing. Amazing! I also was amazed to see an HF radio in this C172 - but this made sense, since you are often in the outback. Great times - I hope it is still the same or better.
Wattle Hills Airstrip
Good sand strip but private. Cranky mob unless you are really stuck. No drinking water, no fuel (even if caught out) or facilities other a bit of a gunyah to get of the sun. Best to head to Lockhart. Mail service uses strip most Wednesdays. Flying Doctor calls also.
Caloundra
Home to the Queensland Air Museum, which is definitely worth a visit.
Brindabella
Brindabella Airlines home base in not Brisbane, but Canberra
NDB
Brisbane NDB decommissioned
Runway designation
Why does the information on this site show the runway headings as 18/36 when the satellite photo clearly shows the runways as 13/31 ?

Runway info
Recently updated the runway info for Watts bridge as it was way off ( something like 3000m & 2000m ) My figures are estimates but close to the mark.
Be aware there is a road and a fence across the NW end of 12-30 and the last few hundred meters is not in use.
Birdsville Races
Birdsville races rained out September 2010, the town became a quagmire, mud, propstrikes and the digging out of planes. A nightmare.
the owner's daughter.......

re: Airfield now closed
Thanks for the update -- I can see a ditch or path cut across the runway in the satellite view.
Airfield now closed
This airstrip has been closed by its owner (University of Queensland)
re: Wattle Hills Airport
Private- best to check before using
Wattle Hills Airport
Good sand strip- no facilities, no water, best going to Lockhart

RUNWAY 15---109.90---150º
Bare Base
This is one of the RAAF's three "bare bases" -- it's empty, but has all the infrastructure in place to be activated quickly in case of a crisis.
GOANA Air Safari
Did a C-172 checkout at Redcliffe with GOANA in 2002 before spending a week flying around the East Coast of Australia. Was issued an Australian Day VFR license on the basis of my Canadian license and a check flight with the GOANA chief pilot.

Viva The Whitsundays
Landed here on a short (maybe 15 minutes) shuttle flight in a Cherokee 6, from Hamilton Island where we just arrived from Sydney. Absolutely fantastic views of the Whitsundays Islands :-)
The grass runway is located between two big hills so you basically can't see the circuit on the downwind leg (which is itself above water) and keeping the runway centerline is not just an option here...
Oh I almost forgot the subsequent sailing around the Whitsundays was awesome too !
Skyfox Gazelle
had a TIF on a Gazelle ultralight there. How slow compared to the Warrior, but also how easy to fly. Flying at fairly low level above the beach, awesome :-)
MCY
A great place to fly into, but ramp space is very limited.
CTL
A much busier airport back in the 70's.
BCI
I flew in here in a Stearman one day, and was warmly welcomed by about half the population of the town. A nice friendly place.
