## Description

Pine plantations, sawmills and the timber country of the Snowy Valleys surround Tumut (TUM) in southern New South Wales. The aerodrome handles general aviation only – private, business and charter flights plus maintenance and firefighting operations – with no scheduled passenger or cargo service. There is no air-freight infrastructure; regional goods travel by road, and the nearest airport with scheduled flights is Wagga Wagga, with Canberra the larger hub beyond. For forwarders, Tumut is at most a launch point for charters into remote forestry and mountain areas rather than a freight location. The timber and paper industry of the Tumut valley is the local reference point.
