Following a light BBQ lunch self-catered by our Rotary Club, those attending will be addressed by the General Manager who will cover the early history, present and the future of the airport that provides an extensive range of civil aviation services.

Moorabbin Airport is the second busiest airport in Australia, averaging 295,000 movements per year. There are approximately 3,300 people directly employed at the airport and 6,000 people indirectly employed. It is estimated that one third of all airport jobs are aviation-related. 1,200 student pilots are trained at the airport each year by a dozen flight schools, with 50% travelling from regional areas or overseas. The airport and its businesses provide $50+ million in exports through flight training services.
