I understand the next big thing in Melbourne GA is Tooradin Airport.

Tooradin could be set to be a big centre for aviation.

The airport owner now has 2 x Cirrus SR20s and 1 x SR22 working. An R44, Cessna Caravan, 2 x Airvans and others. The oil rig choppers are now based there as well.

No towers, No huge landing fees etc. I understand the airfield owner is about to pay for a GPS/NPA approach as well.

Good to see someone has some confidence.

Maybe a message there for operators in EN, MB, BK & others.

Find a greenfields site and set up afresh.
