Another great idea........and the RAAF boys will be happy to protect them too! Weipa will be a great boom town then!
And it seems like the bulk of the work is training, so apart from the trainers, the rest will move on anyway from Willy. Of course the trainers would need to be content.
Or how about they build a whole new base not so "remote" and free up willy for the public. Rudd and Swan would love to sell that to MacBank!
