Looking to hire an aircraft around Broome.

[BlurE]

Hi all - looking at heading up to Broome maybe August - September and was curious about the chances of hiring a RAA-reg aircraft for a few hours.

 

Does anyone know any schools/Clubs operating near by? (I know near by is a relative term!) I see Broome YBRM has a 10 mile diameter Class-D to surface but maybe there is something just outside that?

 

If it's not possible I know there is heaps of charter up there so I guess I can get up one way or another.

 

Cheers

There is a Jab that flys out of Derby (literally up the road by Kimberley standards!) couldn’t tell you if it’s private or hire, apart from that you’re out of luck.

Had the same idea last May. No luck but did a great day trip as pax to the Bungle Bungles and back in a C210.

Nice area to fly around especially Nth of Broome. Be lucky to find anything for hire out that way I'd say, imagine the costs of keeping an a/c online for hire so far away. Back on the 80's there was a Bishop named Jobst, I used to fly his C210, funny old guy, many stories about the old Bishop
