Immaculate private airfield, when driving past runway looks good enough to land a private jet.

I know who owned this strip up to and maybe even current, the strip is ideal for LSA, Gyro even VH registered aircraft up to Piper Arrow etc. There was fuel and a lunchroom and a bunk to rest.

Excellent!

Very nice.

Very nice airport but should add another runway.

Good, but....

Very nice airport but I think the dirt runway should be paved. This is the message from my ACC.

Give me a break!

Food for thought: What would happen if you ever needed an emergency flight by the Royal Flying Doctor Service or Air Ambulance or Care Flight. These aircraft aren't manufactured with pilots in them, no, they have to do lots training both on the ground and airborne and whilst you might think the pilot flying overhead is annoying he or she just might save your life or that of one of your family one day. So instead of lambasting them for upsetting your peace and quiet say a little prayer of thanks that they are doing something worthwhile with their lives. Next time you take off in a jumbo jet there's a real human being up front, in fact two, one is a pilot and the other is his co-pilot and without them the aircraft doesn't take off. When there are no aircraft flying that's the time to start worrying.

Low flying plane for more than an hour this morning!

We live in myocum & most mornings we are woken to the noise of low flying planes. One in particular flies over & over for ages. Why can't they fly out to sea instead of flying over a residential area? Seems as they are a law unto themselves. Planes have been continuously flying low over our house for over an hour this morning!

Low flying plane for over 25 minutes today!

Who are the idiot joyriders plaguing us with continuous low swoops over our property and surrounding area of Myocum? ah, is this yet again the way our rights to peace and quiet are to be invaded by tourists and other jokers in planes? This plane was just above the gums on their lowest swoop.

GREAT LITTLE BUSH STRIP

I learnt to fly based at this strip and found the owner (Bob McIntyre) to be the nicest of blokes you will meet. Bob maintains the strip in an immaculate state and is keen to say gudday to all those that drop in.

The strip is set in amongst his sugarcane crops and is a very picturesque location so take your camera.

Easy flights if it's not raining

Flying from Port McQuarrie to Lord Howe Island for r&r/diving and encountered a large rain storm that came down in buckets. Had to circle for about an hour before tower advised it was okay to land. Still was certain we were going to skid off the end of the runway and into the ocean but we made it safe and the pilot shook everyones hand afterward (all 6 of us).

Hobby

I believe this is a hobby strip, literally packed earth and it's on private land so no public access.

Picture of jwatsontravel

Basic but good

Didn't fly in or out of here as we drove in to visit friends in the area but went to the airport to pick up some cargo. Fun town with some great bars but the locals can get rowdy so be aware and leave quickly if you must.

Love this airport every time

Been on international flights landing here on 6 occasions and domestic flights over 20 times in the past. Never had any issues with customs, finding information or connection times (when relevant). Easy to get around, customs is friendly and helpful and of course you are in Oz so things just feel better. Taxi lines can be crazy sometimes when hundreds of people get out at the same time but no major issues.

Glider Soaring

Bunyan Airfield is the home of the Canberra Gliding Club, which has operated from this site for more than 30 years. The site offers a range of lift types, including thermals, ridge soaring, mountain lee waves, and seabreeze convergence lift. The Australian altitude record for gliders (33,000 feet above sea level) was set during a flight from Bunyan Airfield in 1995 using mountain lee waves.

Amazing Airport

Flight was great. Got threaten by a terrorist but it was worth the experience. I would recommend Yass airport to anyone who truly wants a great aussie experience, even though I nearly died after hitting a cow but still it was great and there is only ten plane crashes a year. Definitely returning with my family, I definitely McLoved it!

The airport security was awesomely slack too, the staff all bogans and the plane took three turns to take off, but you know what? I McLoved every second of it.

Interesting Runway

Last visit there was a drainage ditch across about 100 m of the western threshold.

Otherwise, beware parachutists and when grass long and wet.

i was told from the travel agent there will be a bus....!!!

There was neither sign for the bus, nor for transits

i asked Virgin airlines lady/lazy!! told me to sit down there till i miss my flight.

spent a night and slept on the floor (the Virgin, NZ flight and Syd airport do not know have accommodation!!)

in the morning got air NZ check open given GATE 50!!! but later got the screen board GATE 56!! HUH...

i though i will miss again my flight but asked tens of virgins employees (dont trust one person) finally got it yet delayed our time 40min.

i wish if i could get refund or reward for missing flight and accommodation ...can anyone hear me

my opinion to get Victorian employees in Sydney airport or close that airport.
