Holbrook: Archerfield Airport -> 225 deg
Archerfield Airport has served as a general-aviation airport in Brisbane, Queensland, since 1931. Set on the flat southern outskirts of the city, it is an established centre for pilot training, charter flying and aircraft maintenance. During the Second World War, Archerfield was Brisbane’s principal airport and an important Allied air base; its role changed after regular civil airline operations moved to Eagle Farm. The aerodrome’s runways, hangars and open airfield lie within the Brisbane urban area, west of the Brisbane River. It remains a working aviation precinct rather than a conventional passenger-terminal airport, linking local flying activity with air services across south-east Queensland.

Holbrook sits on the southern edge of the Riverina in New South Wales, where the inland Sydney–Melbourne route crosses broad grazing and grain country. Founded as Germanton, it was renamed in 1915 for Lieutenant Norman Douglas Holbrook, a British submarine commander awarded the Victoria Cross during the First World War. That unexpected naval connection is marked by the Holbrook Submarine Museum and the fin of the former Royal Australian Navy submarine HMAS Otway. The Hume Highway once passed through the town centre before a bypass redirected through traffic.

New South Wales is widely known within Australia for Sydney Harbour, home to the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge. The state extends from the Pacific coastline across the Great Dividing Range to wide inland plains within the Murray–Darling Basin. Sydney is Australia’s largest city and a major centre for finance, arts and international travel, while inland districts are strongly associated with farming and long distances between towns. The Blue Mountains, west of Sydney, form part of a UNESCO World Heritage area of eucalyptus forests, sandstone escarpments and deep valleys.

Australia’s terrain extends from tropical rainforests in the northeast to arid plains in the interior, producing dramatic climatic contrasts. The Great Dividing Range follows much of the eastern coast, while the Great Barrier Reef lies off Queensland in the Coral Sea and Uluru rises from the central desert. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples maintain living cultures whose connections to Country long predate European settlement. In Sydney, the sail-like Opera House, completed in 1973, stands beside one of the world’s best-known harbours. Discover further points of interest through webcams located across Australia.
