Bathurst Airport

Bathurst Airport is a very small airport located in the central tablelands of Australia. The airport is used occasionally for the domestic air traffic. The airport authorities do not levy charges on landing of any aircraft below 2000 kilograms. This feature makes the airport popular with trainee pilots under going navigation training and they use the airport facilities recurrently. No other airline other than the Regional Express will provide a flight to the Bathurst airport. There are only two runways in the airport of which only one is sealed, the other is made of brown gravel. You can rent a car from Australia Rent Car to visit the Bathurst airport and its adjoining areas.
