The Oaks Airport, Sydney's last remaining WW2 Airport, is under threat from a proposed 115' (35m) Mobile Phone Tower, to be built within the circuit area, adjacent to the north east of the airport.
We believe this will be a deadly hazard to Aviation and Airport Users.
The Oaks Airspace/Airport is extensively used for training, and has been since World War 2.
We are presently working on restoring the Airport, for the benefit of Aviation in the Sydney basin and bringing Tourism to The Oaks and Wollondilly (more on our plans later).....
This Tower will jeopardise existing operations and will restrict (or even close) our opportunities for the future.
We are URGENTLY seeking any help/assistance/suggestions/legal views etc., especially "Expert Opinions" that can help us make it clear to local authorities what a risk this proposed Tower poses and what a mistake it would be to let it be built.
The Oaks Airport represents a great resource for Aviation around Sydney. We can't let it be compromised !
