ADF Serials Telegraph Newsletter
John Bennett ADF Serials Telegraph Newsletter Volume 10 Issue 3: Winter 2020 Welcome to the ADF-Serials Telegraph. Articles for those interested in Australian Military Aircraft History and Serials Our Editorial and contributing Members in this issue are: John ”JB” Bennett, Garry “Shep” Shepherdson, Gordon “Gordy” Birkett and Patience “FIK” Justification As stated on our Web Page; http://www.adf-serials.com.au/newsletter.htm “First published in November 2002, then regularly until July 2008, the ADF-Serials Newsletter provided subscribers various news and articles that would be of interest to those in Australian Military Heritage. Darren Crick was the first Editor and Site Host; the later role he maintains. The Newsletter from December 2002 was compiled by Jan Herivel who tirelessly composed each issue for nearly six years. She was supported by contributors from a variety of backgrounds on subjects ranging from 1914 to the current period. It wasn’t easy due to the ebb and flow of contributions, but regular columns were kept by those who always made Jan’s deadlines. Jan has since left this site to further her professional ambitions. As stated “The Current ADF-Serials Telegraph is a more modest version than its predecessor, but maintains the direction of being an outlet and circulating Email Newsletter for this site”. Words from me I would argue that it is not a modest version anymore as recent years issues are breaking both page records populated with top quality articles! John and I say that comment is now truly being too modest! As stated, the original Newsletter that started from December 2002 and ended in 2008, and was circulated for 38 Editions, where by now...excluding this edition, the Telegraph has been posted 44 editions since 2011 to the beginning of this year, 2020. -

Department of Planning NSW Director Regions, Hunter and Central Coast PO Box 1148 Gosford NSW 2250 26.05.16
Department of Planning NSW Director Regions, Hunter and Central Coast PO Box 1148 Gosford NSW 2250 26.05.16 Dear Director Review of the NSW Warnervale Airport (Restrictions) Act 1996 This Act was introduced to restrict the development of Warnervale Airport, thereby protecting the amenity of residents living around the airport and the environment of the adjacent wetlands and waterways. We, the Central Coast Greens, think the Act should be retained because it is achieving its aims of restricting the development of the Warnervale Aerodrome and it is ensuring a proper process to protect the pre-existing amenity of the residents of Wyong Shire. The environment, aircraft noise and a curfew are all restrictions we believe the Act serves to protect. The Act has achieved its aims for the past twenty years and continues to do so in a most efficient manner and therefore, in our opinion, must be retained, whilst ever the Warnervale Airport exists. If the status of Warnervale Airport is altered to another airport classification and category, there is , in the absence of this Act, no way of protecting the interests of the residents and the environment within those categories. The Act aligns with many of the Central Coast Regional Plan Goals, it is already in place and its retention requires no further work or cost to Wyong Shire Council, the NSW Government or the residents. While we understand that the purpose of this regular and scheduled review is to examine if the Warnervale Airport Restrictions Act ’96 should remain or the airport moved to a different general classification, we believe this decision is impossible to make unless we take a holistic view of the airport, it's operations and the possible alternative uses that have already been planned for the airport site by Wyong Shire Council* and the State Government. -
