Cobar Regional Airport NSW

Cobar Regional Airport in NSW is located 5km southwest of the Cobar Town Centre. It is currently owned, operated and maintained by Cobar Shire Council. The Airport has operated since the mid-1960s. The first plane to land in Cobar was actually in 1924 at Dalton Park which is now the location of the Racecourse.

The Airport provides an efficient access option for the substantial mining industry, also providing access to NSW Health Services and the general population.

The Airport has recently been upgraded with funding from Restart NSW Fund Resources for Regions. This included reconstruction of the pavement to allow larger aircraft to land and a new lighting system that is CASA compliant.

Cobar Regional Airport is an approved non-precision GPS-assisted Airport.

Refuelling facilities are currently operated by Aerorefuellers. Avgas and Jet A1 are available onsite. Afterhours refuelling is available by phoning the Airport number.
