Interesting Airports?
Looking for ideas for interesting places to fly and around Victoria and NSW. Be it somewhere with an decent burger within walking distance, a challenging approach, maybe a hard to find strip or a something nice and short (with a nearby diversion for if I give up!)
We all know of Brown Brothers so lets think a little harder.
How about the Lat Long challenge? Give me the coordinates and I'll take a photo of it tomorrow... No GPS though, that would be cheating.

Park the 'plane right out the front and watch the boys at HARS playing with all their toys while you have lunch.

I thought the cafe at Armidale airport was very good when I was through there a couple of times in 2000. The local berry farm had it then and used to do home made cakes and other mouth watering things with the fruit.

I havent been there for a while but the last time I went to Tooradin it was nice. Good tucker as they have fresh seafood come in almost every morning I believe. Strip and airport not overly different or exciting, good on a nice sunny weekend sitting on their balcony watching the weekend warriors!! Only a hop skip and jump from MB.
If someone has been there recently please enlighten me as to what the food quality is like these days!

Try Mt Beauty; good strip, nice view of a big mountain off the end of the strip, and a short walk into a lovely little mountain village.
