Our Sydney office is in a suburb called Moorebank and it is about 12 minutes away from Bankstown airport. I have never been to Bankstown airport so this afternoon I thought I would venture out there after work and have a look around for the first time. Bankstown Airport (IATA: BWU, ICAO: YSBK) is a general aviation and a domestic airport, it is also a business park. The airport is located in the City of Bankstown 22 km (14 miles) from Sydney. Bankstown Airport, also known as Sydney Metro Airport, is situated on 313 hectares (770 acres) of land and has three parallel runways, a small passenger terminal and as I mentioned a business park home to over 170 businesses.
Bankstown Airport operates 24 hours a day, with limitations placed on night circuit training. The three asphalt runways are;
11C / 29C at 1,416 meters (4,646 feet)
11L / 29R at 1,100 metres (3,609 feet)
11R / 29 L at 1,038 meters (3,406 feet)
Bankstown Airport is owned by the Federal Government and leased by Bankstown Airport Limited, It is 10 meters (34 feet) AMSL
