Student Pilot Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 If you would have shown the whole airstrip it would have been clear with the fire bomber base at the other end, you can however see a red trail from the retardant overflowing as the bombers accelerate.
Okihara Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 Mansfield Touché! YMFD it is! Victoria used to be green. Now it's yellow. Compare with the Google Maps view attached. 1
Earl Pike Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 That’s my hangar, bottom left. Good wine, food and adventure.The mountains could be clue.
Earl Pike Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 Well done Thruster88. A great place to fly. Good friendly airfield community, ranging from hang gliding, paragliding, gliding, micro lights, GA and RA. Close to Wangaratta, Brown Bros. at Milawa, Mount Beauty, Shepparton and a little further to Deniliquin. All active and welcoming flying groups. 1
BirdDog Posted April 28, 2019 Posted April 28, 2019 Well, I flew over many strips last week on an epic adventure.... Let's see how good you all are. ;)
kaz3g Posted April 29, 2019 Posted April 29, 2019 First one is Cobar I reckon. Kaz I’m a little slow...was looking at the first quiz and wouldn’t have picked Wilcannia because ERSA shows gravel both strips. Kaz
kaz3g Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 Looks like Tocumwal...no numbers on RWY so that’s not right
Okihara Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 Tocumwal? Yes for the arrows but no parking on the left.
red750 Posted October 7, 2019 Posted October 7, 2019 You mean Moorabbin. That spot used to be a good place for spotting and taking photographs, but those new shops and that pile of earth killed that. I don't know what they plan to put on that big mound in the foreground. 1

That spot used to be a good place for spotting and taking photographs, but those new shops and that pile of earth killed that. I don't know what they plan to put on that big mound in the foreground. I don't know. It's truly upsetting to see all those developments around the airfield. This is especially sad considering the low-end shops that sprouted up. Australia needs more Aldi, DFOs and mattress shops. By all means, put them next the runways.
pmccarthy Posted October 7, 2019 Posted October 7, 2019 DFO is a Dangerous Flying Obstruction. At Moorabbin and Essendon, probably elsewhere.
spacesailor Posted October 7, 2019 Posted October 7, 2019 Mattress factory should be soft to land on !. spacesailor
