Bunbury Airport is located {{convert|8|km|abbr=on}} south-east of the city centre and is the only airport serving the city. The airport is used largely as a facility for General Aviation, pilot training and emergency services. Bunbury Airport serves an area that includes the City of Bunbury and the surrounding districts of Harvey, Dardanup, Capel and Donnybrook-Balingup. HistoryThe City of Bunbury is the owner and operator of Bunbury Airport. Council first investigated the possibility of an airstrip in 1965 and with the help of a band of enthusiastic aviators and input from the then Department of Civil Aviation, the airstrip became operational in 1969. It has evolved to present day with council funds, government grants/funds, and operational input from the Bunbury Aero Club. The aerodrome is a 'registered' airport with the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA). Recent upgrades to the airport include the following:
Operations and facilitiesBunbury Airport has a single sealed runway, 07/25 which is {{convert|1222|x|18|m|abbr=on|0}} wide. Due to the proximity of the South Western Highway, there is a {{convert|206|m|abbr=on}} permanently displaced threshold at the runway 25 end to allow sufficient clearance over the road. Because of this, the available landing distance is {{convert|1015|m|abbr=on}}. The airport is currently restricted to aircraft with a maximum take-off weight less than {{convert|5700|kg|abbr=on}}.[2] Runway 07/25 is equipped with low intensity, pilot activated runway lighting for night operations. There is no control tower and pilots must co-ordinate arrivals and departures using a Common Traffic Advisory Frequency. Three flying schools and 1 facility operate out of Bunbury Airport, they are: AirChartersWest,[3] Bunbury Aero Club,[4] Bunbury Flying School[5] and AirSportsWA. The schools and airport are a major Recreational Aviation Australia approved flight training facility.[6] Bunbury Airport currently averages 13,000 aircraft movements per annum. The airport is home to a permanent rescue helicopter base operated by the Department of Fire & Emergency Services, seasonal water bombers operated by the Parks & Wildlife Services section of the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions and significant visitation by the Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS).
