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.

No shade anywhere.
RMK
Heart of the Riverland.

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.

Very historic town. Visit the paddlesteamers.

A handy alternate to Melbourne.

A good airstrip, with lots of history.

Difficult to find the airport when it is hazy.

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.

The Certified Air-Ground Operator does more harm than good. Better off leaving it just as a CTAF (R).

Flew a Stearman out of here.

The Darwin Air Museum is well worth a visit.

The silver city.

Beware density altitude in summer.

On the beautiful Gold Coast.

Share the airspace with F/A-18's.

Too cold in winter, too windy in summer.

A pity we never get to land into wind!
GOANA Air Safari
We landed here in 2002, during the bush fire season. There were brush fires burning West of the airstrip, and we flew long curving finals to avoid the smoke. We were grounded there for two days, IMC in smoke. Australia is a very interesting country! We used the time to go on a boat tour of the estuary, visit a Koala sanctuary and visit several pubs.
