CNS
One of my all-time favourite airports, and cities. The birthplace of Bush Pilots Airways.
BNE
I can't wait until they open the new parallel runway. A pity it won't be pointing into the prevailing (south-easterly) wind.
KGI
Flying in here I am always amazed at the size of the holes in the ground. There must be some awfully big rabbits in these parts.
PER
This airport has to hold some sort of record for the number of SID's and STAR's. I guess they want to make it look like a big place. ATC seem to think they are at Chicago or somewhere.
One thing in very short supply is ramp space, and the delays in getting to the runway (particularly early in the morning - everyone seems to want to depart at 0600) are unbelievable.
A very clean and pleasant city though.
BWT
A cosy city.
KNS
The wind! The only thing between here and the South Pole is a barbed wire fence, and it is mostly broken down. Great seafood though.
LST
A lovely city, and very historic.
HBA
Last stop before the South Pole.
Parafield
A most friendly airport.
OLP
Growing to be a very busy place.
KBY
No shade anywhere.
RMK
Heart of the Riverland.
PLO
The tuna capital of Australia.
PUG
Birthplace of Pagas Airlines.
KGC
The main airport on Kangaroo Island.
CED
It takes a while to get there, but is worth the trip.
CPD
The opal capital of the world. The town looks deceptively small and uninhabited from the air, however most homes (and some businesses) are underground.
WYA
A pity they closed the third runway.
ADL
A great city, and very easy to get around.
SHT
A really friendly airport.
PTJ
Interesting weather in winter.
MBW
Back in the 60's this was the busiest airport in the southern hemisphere (by aircraft movements - most were training flights). Much quieter these days.
MQL
The best city in Victoria in winter.
HLT
Birthplace of Ansett Airlines.
ECH
Very historic town. Visit the paddlesteamers.
BSJ
Former WWII training airfield.
WGT
A real shame that the Airworld museum closed down.
MEB
Very handy for bizjets.
AVV
A handy alternate to Melbourne.
MGT
A good airstrip, with lots of history.
JAB
Gateway to Kakadu.
BOX
A good place to stop for lunch. Fresh Barramundi!
RPM
Difficult to find the airport when it is hazy.
MNG
Not much there.
GTE
Not much to do there, except wish you were somewhere else.
ELC
A pleasant place.
GOV
I was based here for a few months. Was not sorry to leave.
AYQ
The Certified Air-Ground Operator does more harm than good. Better off leaving it just as a CTAF (R).
KTR
Flew a Stearman out of here.
DRW
The Darwin Air Museum is well worth a visit.
ASP
Birthplace of Connellan Airlines.
BNK
Great location.
BRK
Great citrus grown there.
BHQ
The silver city.
ARM
Beware density altitude in summer.
WGA
Birthplace of Kendell Airlines.
DBO
Good spot.
OOL
On the beautiful Gold Coast.
RCM
Some great airshows there in years past.
