Toowoomba YTWB Upgrade Project

Hi all just wanting to let all know that the Project upgrade to the Toowoomba Aerodrome is progressing and to inform that if yourself or anyone else you may know who is an aircraft operator, does intend on using Toowoomba we do have a displaced threshhold in place. For TORA, TODA's and LDA's refer to the NOTAM in place. The project works are expected to be completed approx. Mid May 2011. For small GA and Rec aircraft the RWY 11/29 LDA and TORA is still reasonable length(Refer NOTAM) the Grass 06/24(750M) is still servicable as well.

Cheers

Ha!

I landed a Cherokee on the grass in 1974 - almost went through the fence!

Runway Length

Guys,

Just checked Notams and ERSA. The grass runway 06/24 is 660 meters not 750 as discussed. Due to the WIP 11/29 has a TORA of 812/752 and an LDA of 692/662 due displaced thresholds. Please check notams though as things can change.

Yes your right it is 660 meters, my appologies. That is threshhold to threshhold outlined by the white buckets with the length I stated is the overall runway strip being approx 750.
