A Day at the Races
Description
Most large country towns feature a racecourse and a golf course, both of which help you build a mental map where the airport is located.
Armidale Racecourse is about 2 miles NE of the airport. See if you can spot the golf course?
About 10 nm NE of Armidale airport is Woodville Airport YWVI, whose grass runways can be quite hard to spot from a distance. By pure luck your flight path follows a dirt road which leads directly to it.
