Spoke to Longreach Council Mayor and CEO in Longreach this morning. Latest arrival date is Easter but that is not yet "firm".
The present Longreach Passenger Terminal remains. The B707 will be parked next to the B742 on the eastern side. Buildings have been removed, some cementing completed but the site is not yet finished.
It's looking like an Easter PPRuNe Bash in Longreach. Accommodation will be at an absolute premium. Headaches were dispensed freely in the early hours of the morning in the front bar of The Welcome Home Hotel in Eagle Street, on the day the B742 arrived.
Should I book the same venue again?
