Westward Downs Airport Other

Runways don't make sense. 09-27, and also 27-09 ... ?

Wonder if someone tried to indicate a displaced threshold by creating a second runway layout...?

Yea Airport Non-existant/spam airport

Does this airfield actually exist?? The location is a long way from the town of Yea, and is in a narrow wooded valley. It's inconceivable that there could be an airfield there. Close to Yea is the Yeaburn airfield YYEA which is visible on the satellite images.

Manbulloo Airstrip Duplicate airport

There is an old WW2 airstrip that was known as Manbulloo Airfield located at -14.59886 132.189407. I flew there when it hosted the Australian Skydiving Relative Work week in the late 1980's during which a Twin Otter and other smaller aircraft flew skydivers from this strip. It now appears to form an access road leading to a mango plantation that I remember previously being there at the south east of the runway.

Wandsworth Airport Other

i don't think you could land here

resolved 2021-12-14 01:43:26 2022-03-13 11:16:28

There is a widened section of road nearby that may double as a landing strip. I'm not moving the marker for now, because this is where ICAO says the airport is, but I suspect it's that section of road just to the WNW.

Brisbane Archerfield Airport Other

Missing both TAF and METAR Information.

Christmas Creek Airport Non-existant/spam airport

Graeme Rowley is not a real airport. It isn't listed in the Australia AIP and the coordinates used for it are the same as Christmas Creek airport that is in the AIP.

Pakenham Airport Wrong airport location

I flew for many years as a senior pilot for Commando Skydiving Club on their C206 and BN-2A before they moved south to Tooradin. The location of the East West runway is approximately aligned on the map with Arden Avenue, Pakenham and ran the length between Koo Wee Rup Road and McGregor Road to the west. Not where indicated currently by the green cross. Contact me if you want further verification.

David

Assuming you mean the issue is closed (after you corrected the location) rather than the airport itself. YGCR still appears in the list of airport codes in the 2 Dec AIP. Please open a new PR with additional info about the closure if I've misunderstood.
