Hi All..
I've been lurking for a while now.. Since I decided I was going to built a gyro...

However now that I'm almost fully mobile again (long story about a motorbike accident) I'm trying to find how to get out to Bindoon Airstrip (Abandoned) to say hi to people and see what goes on.

Firstly where is it from Great Northener H/Way..
And if Possible the GPS long/lats for it...

Cheers & Be Safe

Norm

Norm,

there's a strip at Bindoon at Co-ords: S:31° 21.500'* *E:116° 11.000' -* it's a registered strip so may not be the one your looking for. Have a look on Google Earth if you've got it and it'll show you a grass strip running East West - road detail isn't great though. It lies approx 21 miles North East of GinGin Airport if that helps!!

All I know is that it is run by the Bindoon Catholic Agricultural College and their phone number is 08 9576-1040 - if it's not the strip your looking for they may know of it and how to get there.

If your ever looking for a registered airfield try Aeroclub (http://www.aeroclub.com.au/)
