This stunningly beautiful landing strip can be challenging to land and take off on. Pilots who recently landed there , advocate only using a 6 cylinder aircraft on a cool day .
.It is short ( 678m) and the grass can be " sticky" in the middle section.
I practiced 100 short field take offs and landings before landing there with a 6 cylinder Jabiru 230 D.
Hervey Bay , Australia is one of the worlds secret top getaways

  • Kevin,

    Speak to Greg C next time you do and ask him about our little adventure landing and taking off here, after we left you at Temora.

    For those who want to land at this place a small word of caution. **DONT**. It is extremely boggy with grass that is very unforgiving with spats on. Do not try and attempt this with anything smaller than a 6 cylinder aircraft and only when weather is cooler.
