Comment by @Yannick on Hobart Cambridge Airport, Australia:

The GA field for Hobart, just next to the International airport - so close they use the same tower.

Left Cambridge for a tour with Par Avion, www.paravion.com.au - to Melaleuca, a remote strip near Bathurst Harbour. It was just fantastic, this is really what flying is all about.

The wind! The only thing between here and the South Pole is a barbed wire fence, and it is mostly broken down. Great seafood though.
