Airports in South Australia, Australia

Just completed a year of training at YADG.That is one day a week,every week.I have never seen anyone treated disrespectfully who adheres to good airmanship.Adelaide Biplanes represent an enormous investment of time and experience in what they do,and I think they do it well.As for AVGAS prices,well no landing fees,so do the math.Food and coffee is outstanding,not just for an aerodrome,for anywhere.As for what the locals think,maybe some don't mind the odd Tiger Moth,Waco or Pilatus in exchange for the tourist dollars and jobs for quite a few young people that are a consequence.As for being a dodgy place to fly in to,seriously?All left hand circuits,no parachute operations.And a CASA report for a go round?I suspect there was more to this...

I have stumbled across this site and fail to understand the comments of some.

No one, but no one expects avgas for nothing. But to be charged more per litre than even Goolwa who I can assure you pay cartage to get the avgas to Goolwa and yet charge less than Aldinga who pay NO CARTAGE AT ALL.

To fly into Aldinga is risky as yes, there are 3 runways in operation at the same time which is totally uncalled for and unless one is familiar with the procedures, it is downright dangerous and totally uncalled for.

The guy from Tassie must have had a fist full of dollars as that is about the only thing that they worship. No money to spend with us, do not waste our time.

I can assure you that I have dealt with customers all my life and for the comments posted by some guy regarding the person who had a mechanical workshop all his life must now be employed by the helpful and nice lady.

Who in their right mind would wish to live near Aldinga aerodrome that now seems to be Basterdized by the sound of continuous buzzing of aircraft in all directions flying over the neighbors homes.

And then there is now a commercial operation operating large aircraft who I believe fly so low with no regard or consideration of the neiboring homes and properties.

Sorry, Aldinga is staffed by rude, arrogant, self opinionated, inconsiderate people who have a total disregard for Australians and are instigating some bad flying practice, and dangerous.

Nope, I stay away from Aldinga. There are friendlier places nearby who are friendlier and have visitors and aviators interests at heart without the aim of fleecing one.

I landed here once, took bikes and cycled the wineries, stayed overnight in a B&B

Good restaurants, hotels in town. Excellent airport facilities including servicing by Carl at Tuna Aviation. Short taxi trip to town. You will need a valid ASIC as it's a RPT airport. Only 1.5 hrs from Adelaide and great views along the way.
