'Povo' yes Capt Wally has been into Grovedale but not for many moons.
My Co. used to fly into there with the previous A/C (C404) but it's not suitable for our current ops. We land at AV for the Geelong hossy.
Just thinking about the last time into Geelong for me was Nov '97, took about a Doz fire fighters up to Deleget from Geelong for the Bushfire season, well actual fire if I recall.

I guess if Barwon Heads gets expanded then the area still has good airfield access.

.........p.s. 'povo' this bit I liked.......choose to "fly" their ride on mowers on the weekend.....
