Cessnock Aerodrome

The Cessnock airport is popular flight training airport built during world war II and was know as RAAF base pokolbin.
There is a Wirraway Aviation Museum and helicopter charter companies. Early hours of the day Hot air balloon flights are also operated in close proximity to the aerodrome.

If you’re a private pilot, Cessnock is one of the best places in the Sydney area to take a new passenger for a lunch time daytrip to give them a taste of aviation.

Only half an hour from Bankstown, it has the Lovedale Pub at the Crowne Plaza, the restaurant and chocolate shop at Peterson House, and the Di Bertoli cellar door all within easy walking distance. Most weekends there’s also a cafe on the airport next to the gate, alongside the wine tourism centre.

Spoiled for choice!

WWOOF活動でブロークに行った時にこの空港に立ち寄りました。田舎に有るのどかな空港です。飛行機を借りようと思いましたが、あいにく免許証、フライトログを持ってきてなかったので断念しました。
