Fantastic Peter. It's sad the look at places like Bankstown now, and see the lack of aircraft, compared to the number of aircraft in your photo's.
Sadly, GA is in a very sad state now, no thanks to the governments who have no idea about the importance of GA.
Selling airports, rising regulation costs, rising air service costs, increasing regulation beyond what is sensible, some of the many reasons why GA is dieing in Australia.
Perhaps when they find there's no one to pilot their flight to Canberra one day, and they ask why, they'll then realise the importance of this part of the industry in Australia.
