This is rubbish! There is a strong recreational and VH component to the Adelaide Soaring Club which now has a growing powered element. There is a new clubhouse and briefing room and visitors are certainly welcome. There can be a lot of traffic with gliders and tug aircraft so you need to listen to your wireless and follow the usual rules. There can also be several Jabirus in the circuit on training days - but this just means you will have someone to talk to if you call in. John Couper-Smartt
If you know someone there by all means visit the place otherwise stay away they do not like visitors.
Having said that once they get rid of the current management comittee it will turn into a nice place, if you think I am wrong or biased then by all means go there

Pricipally a glider aerodrome run by a club.
It has fuel and hot water, nothing else.
