...... RIC and WLM already have some of the noisiest types (C130, B707, C5, C17, C141, FA18, etc) ..... DOD have been looking north for years granted .... all it will take is a compelling transport argument and a never to be repeated sale price and the Mil are outa there .... the political trade off would be turbo fan RPT business and better transport links for western Sydney and Newcastle, as well as maintenance company jobs (Airbus Oz or Boeing Oz)
… besides, the Mil transport hub and Maintenance could be located/consolidated with other Mil assets in better (less congested) areas ..... just a thought!
