Merimbula Airport Closure - June 2013

[Ignition]

Just informing you all that if you wish to fly in to Merimbula between Friday 14th June 2013 and Friday 28th June 2013 (inclusive) that the airport will be closed for this period for major works upgrading the runway and thus you will need to either post-pone the trip or divert to another field, such as:

 

- Frogs Hollow (just south of Bega - 9 NM North West of Merimbula)

 

- Moruya (62NM North of Merimbula)

 

- Mallacoota (42NM South of Merimbula).

 

I also believe minor work on the runway will be occuring over the next few months leading up to the closure, so make sure to pay particular attention to Notams and be aware of potential displaced thresholds, obstacles etc, but all should be back to normal operations after the 28th of June, 2013.
