Great report Grahame - thanks.
I went for my first look around Bankstown in about 5 years yesterday - couldn't believe how many of the old resident aircraft businesses had gone or moved. The old Schofield's area and the aircraft painting shed nearby are now desolate with long grass where many aircraft used to park - very sad to see the demise of what used to be a vibrant airport.
There were a couple of nice machines there though with a P2 registered McDermott Bell 214 and a US registered Pa.28 (apologies for the poor quality of my pics (-with a pocket digital and from outside the fence).
Went on to Camden after to see the 3 US residents and also picked up one of the Wildcat Bell 212's (C-FCAN)
cheers
Dave
