Moree Airport
Moree Airport (IATA: MRZ, ICAO: YMOR) is an airport in Moree, New South Wales,
Australia. The airport is 5 km (3.1 mi) from the city center. Brindabella
Airlines previously operated 36 services per week between Moree and Sydney using
British Aerospace Jetstream 41 turboprops, but then airline operations were
taken over by QantasLink using its Bombardier Dash 8 aircraft, while the airport
also provides general aviation facilities, maintenance and support for
agricultural aviation in the local area.
The Moree Aero Club has been based at the airport since 1952, and today provides
aircraft hire and flight training. The club was instrumental in providing many
early improvements to the aerodrome facilities, including hangars and a terminal
building.
Moree airport has two operational runways. The primary runway 01/19 is sealed
with an asphalt surface 1,613 by 30 m (5,292 by 98 ft). This runway is equipped
with pilot-operated lighting for night operations. A secondary gravel runway
05/23 is located on the western side of the field and is 977 by 18 m (3,205 by
59 ft). The airport does not have a control tower as the typical volume of
traffic is not high. Pilots are required to communicate via a Common Traffic
Advisory Frequency (CTAF) to safely co-ordinate arrivals and departures.
