Looking for a real outback strip in QLD
I'm happy to do the flight for you low cost in a very high performance aircraft called a C152
Unfortunately there's only two seats, but it just so happens I'm all over Instagram and should be able to handle the shoot for you on my iPhone
Il be more than happy to hand over most of the shots...

Thanks for your help everyone, had lots of PM's and many many offers from pilots and 'assistants' haha. We've found our shoot location now and we're currently planning a date for the shoot. Thanks again!

Don't worry mate, there's a lurking intelligentsia behind the scenes reporting posts for being abusive, watch your language old mate & don't attempt humour that doesn't conform with aviating in the 50's.

We're heading out to Hungerford after a tip from a regular, parking up next to the fence and walking the rest! Overflying a few smaller strips along the way to check suitability, if we find something before Hungerford we'll be dropping in!
I went to Hungerford years ago. We circled the pub to let the publican know to come out to collect us. His vehicle was somewhat unique - a 4 door Holden Kingswood ute. Didn't leave the factory that way though...
Fond memories of charters to Hungerford, Wanaaring, Ford's Bridge
and some other bywash. And Jack Crawford's place Budgerigah, out past Wanaaring. He'd been buzzed once too often as he'd always park the ute under a big tree after waving the indestructible young Bourke based pilots off.
Trips to many outback pubs with the Fesq and Company traveller in Red Mill Rum were also memorable. Charlie kept to a couple of samples in his valise along with his Colt 45.
he could do a good rendition of -
On the outer Barcoo where churches are few
and men of religion are scanty

Any of the Cooper Basin oil rig strips I used to fly into would probably suffice.
Trouble is that by now they would all be overgrown/blown over with driftsand or otherwise unusable.
Still have co-ords for most of them somewhere.

Doongmabulla
Doongmabulla about 100 nm. West of Clermont in Central QLD. middle of nowhere, we used to put a temporary wire fence around the aircraft when visiting, so the horses wouldn't eat it
