## Description

Qantas Freight runs a ground-handling station on Basil Brown Drive at Tamworth Airport, accepting and releasing consignments on every QantasLink service to Sydney and Brisbane. That belly-hold capacity, rather than any dedicated freighter, defines TMW: heavier or international loads are trucked down the New England Highway to the Sydney gateway. The airport is better known as one of Australia's largest pilot-training centres, with schools such as Sydney Flight College filling its circuits. For the surrounding New England farming and mining district, Tamworth offers fast regional uplift for documents, parts and perishables. Its high movement count makes it one of the busiest regional fields in the state.
