Thangool Aerodrome in QLD is located 400M from the Thangool town centre and 11km south from Biloela town centre. It is certified with the Civil Aviation Safety Authority and provides frequent chartered flights.
The Aerodrome also accommodates regular commercial flights through Link Airways, providing a service three (3) days a week.
Biloela is a busy commercial and tourist hub, though it still retains that relaxed, country feeling. More than 130 years in the making, Thangool is home to a sizable squab industry, providing Australia with 60 per cent of its squab supplies. As you travel through the district, you’ll see large paddocks of sorghum, wheat, sunflower, barley and mung bean crops, the mainstays of local food production.
