Costco opening at Moorabbin Airport
Costco are opening a massive store at Moorabbin Airport this year.
It appears the new warehouse will be built on the north east corner of the airport, so I can't see it conflicting with runway operations.
Moorabbin Airport Corp must be rolling in cash, just wish they would would reduce airport access fees and lease costs so the place isn't so expensive.

Good to see the interest in a further development. May i suggest that those interested aviators not already members join the Moorabbin Airport Chamber of Commerce inc. next meeting at RVAC 17.30 on 22nd and find out about the aviation benefits to YMMB users.
We are all keen to learn about the
if its anything like the developments up to date MAC must coming up with a new formula.
This meeting will also be addressed by the mayor of Kingston Council
Why is this project being proposed?
Airports are infrastructure intensive businesses operating in a highly regulated operational environment and require a mix of investment grade tenants to deliver Master Planned outcomes.
The proposed Costco warehouse represents an investment of $35 million into the local economy and will benefit aviation users, airport tenants, the local community (business and residents) in the wider south-east region. Importantly it provides the long term value required to maintain airport infrastructure and to further promote economic and employment growth for the Kingston and the South East region.
The development is in accordance with and implements the Approved Master Plan (2010) for Moorabbin Airport as well as State and local planning policies and controls.

"This will be a flapless departure runway 35L. If the engine fails below 60 knots, I'll cut the power and call stopping. If it fails above 60 knots and below 500ft, I'll cut the power, call stopping, and land on the costco ahead, in the pillow isle number 93."
I'm assuming if they're building it adjoining the business park it will only use the land that faces onto Boundary Rd? Any word of plans to use the land on the southern and south eastern boundaries of the airport? Might lead to further displaced thresholds on 31L and 35R?

I recall hearing that the golf course on the northern side of Centre Dandenong Rd is marked for residential development.
Doesn't leave a lot of open areas if you lose an engine in takeoff `to the north.
