This is a great airport - we are in and out of here a fair bit and whilst it is VERY busy they are most helful in the tower. If you are ever coning in here just 'do your homework' and then you will enjoy it immensely
Brenton, thanks so much for the photos. Great quality too. The YouTube video works a treat as well. Sorry I'm going to miss you visit on the 10th. Have a good trip !

1st Photo- YMLT- Not quite final (upwind) but my local field.
2nd Photo- YSWH
3rd Photo- YBLT
Both were taken on a nav from YMLT-YFLI-YMMB-YSWH-YBLT-YKII-YMMB-YFLI-YMLT (diversion back to Moorabbin enroute to King Island due weather and made our way back to Launnie through Flinders. Snoopy as our mascot!

Gotta love Snoopy in the Ballarat shot!
By the way, in case you were wondering, for some reason your post appeared twice so I deleted the first copy. It was identical but just missing the Ballarat photo so I hope it won't be missed

Some runways PNG style!!
Kegsugal in PNG... Where the kids play chicken with you on short finals!!! Very daunting when you're landing at 13,000 DA, really heavy, committed to landing in ground effect with very little outs!
Landed, shut down at Isurava in the Kokoda Valley!
