It is the busiest regional airport in Victoria, the 32nd busiest Australian airport and has twice been named Australia&#8217;s Rural Airport of the Year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The History of Mildura Airport<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>During World War II it was taken over by the Royal Australian Air Force as <strong>RAAF Base Mildura<\/strong>. From 1961 to 1976, Australia and the United States Atomic Energy Commission agreed to conduct &#8220;Project HIBAL&#8221; Upper Atmosphere Sampling at Mildura Airport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>QantasLink (de Havilland Dash 8 400) and Regional Express (Saab 340) offer scheduled air services. Virgin Australia (Boeing 737-800) began the first scheduled jet service from 13 October 2008. It is also home to Cobden Air and the <a href=\"http:\/\/milduraaeroclub.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Mildura Aero Club<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its terminal facilities underwent renovation in September 2012. This was completed to modernise the airport, as well as increase it&#8217;s passenger handling capabilities to support future air travel growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Mildurerunwayinfo-1024x633.png\" alt=\"Country Airstrips Australia - Mildura Airport Victoria.\" class=\"wp-image-614 lazyload\" width=\"768\" height=\"475\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Mildurerunwayinfo-1024x633.png 1024w, https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Mildurerunwayinfo-300x185.png 300w, https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Mildurerunwayinfo-768x475.png 768w, https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Mildurerunwayinfo.png 1194w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 768px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 768\/475;\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Mildurerunwayinfo-1024x633.png\" alt=\"Country Airstrips Australia - Mildura Airport Victoria.\" class=\"wp-image-614\" width=\"768\" height=\"475\" srcset=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Mildurerunwayinfo-1024x633.png 1024w, https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Mildurerunwayinfo-300x185.png 300w, https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Mildurerunwayinfo-768x475.png 768w, https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Mildurerunwayinfo.png 1194w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Mildura Airport, VIC<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-background has-fixed-layout\" style=\"background-color:#e7f5fe\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Elevation<\/strong><br>167 Feet<\/td><td><strong>Area Forecast<\/strong><br>30<\/td><td><strong>Strip Direction<\/strong><br>27   \/   09   :   18  \/  36<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>GPS Position<\/strong><br>34\u00b0 13.8&#8242; South<br>141\u00b0 05.1&#8242; East<\/td><td><strong>ALA Code<\/strong><br>YMIA<br><\/td><td><strong>Strip Length<\/strong><br>1830M     :     1139M<br><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>WAC Chart<\/strong><br>3458<\/td><td><strong>FIA<\/strong><br>Melbourne Centre<br>122.1 on Ground<\/td><td><strong>Strip Surface<\/strong><br>         Sealed<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Owner\/Operator<\/strong><br>Mildura Airport Pty Ltd<br>OP <strong><a href=\"tel:0350550500\" class=\"ek-link\">(03) 5055 0500<\/a><\/strong><br><strong><a href=\"tel:0428596871\" class=\"ek-link\">0428 596 871<\/a><\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Windsock<\/strong><br>4 <\/td><td><strong>ASIC Security\/Vis Vest<\/strong><br>Yes<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Fuel<\/strong><br>World Fuel Services<br>Carnet card for 24hr AVGAS Service<br>Jet A1 <strong><a href=\"tel:0350235187\" class=\"ek-link\">(03) 5023 5187<\/a><\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Distance to Town<\/strong><br>5NM<\/td><td><strong>Lighting<\/strong><br>Yes<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Aircraft Parking<\/strong><br>Adjacent to TWY A and B.
