Spotting at Perth's Jandakot Airport


Last week I went to Perth's second airport, and apparently the busiest light aircraft airport in Australia.
This was my first time visiting this amazing airport, but unfortunately, I witnessed a plane crash and even though the pilot survived the crash, sadly he passed away 5 days later.
 
Jandakot Airport (JAD/ YPJT) is a general aviation airport located in Jandakot, Western Australia. The airport is about 20 kilometres (12 miles) south of the city of Perth and the same distance from Perth Airport (PER/YPPH) but southwest
Jandakot airport opened in 1963. From the 1st of July 1998, Jandakot Airport Holdings purchased a 50-year lease with a 49-year option to operate and maintain the airport including its conservation areas.

It is 30 metres (99 feet) above sea level and has three runways, which are:

06R/24L 1,150 metres (3,773 feet) Asphalt
06L/24R 1,392 metres (4,567 feet) Asphalt
12/30 990 metres (3,248 feet) Asphalt

The airport provides access for essential service organisations such as the Royal Flying Doctor Service, Bushfire Water Bombers, RAC Rescue Helicopter and the WA Police Air Wing. There are two major flying schools at Jandakot Airport, and they are the Royal Aero Club of Western Australia, and Singapore Flying College
