WA Flight Service Units
As a former FS officer I can confirm that there was a FS unit at Broome and yes it was there until Jan 1971 when Dixie Goodard closed it. I worked with him in Port Hedland during 1971-2. He died around 1988. Other WA units were Wyndham (closed in 1977 when the unit transferred to Kununurra). I worked in ADKU from 1978-81. Derby managed Broome airspace via a VHF link. Wittenoom was operating when I first arrived in Port Hedland but closed around mid 1972 and the officer moved to Karratha - I think it was only a AFIZ (20-30 nm radius). There was an Aeradio Unit at Halls Creek in the early 1949-53 period. I think old Norm Valentine was the last OIC, before he moved to Wyndham.
This is a great site for old and bold pilots and FS staff. Rgs
