    BUCKLEY, Noble Sydney Douglas (Nobby)

    SOUTH AUSTRALIAN AVIATION MUSEUM SIGNIFICANT AVIATOR PROFILES NOBLE (NOBBY) SYDNEY DOUGLAS BUCKLEY MBE Nobby Buckley was born on the 26th December 1905. His father was Allan Frank Buckley and mother Elizabeth Kate (nee Douglas, which may explain part of Nobby’s name). He was one of eight siblings and other names included brothers Bright Frank Douglas, Bonnie Boy Douglas and Horatio Octavious Douglas; and sisters Merrie Joie Kitty Douglas and May Flor Muriel Aenone. Nobby’s father was born in Victoria in 1880. He was the son of Allan Knox Buckley, an Irishman from Ballriggan County Mead who migrated to Australia in the 1860s at the age of 17. Allan Frank Buckley was a businessman with farming interests.1 In 1909 he was instrumental in setting up the suburb of Noble Park in Melbourne, N.S.D. Buckley [Photo SAAM collection] which he named after Nobby with streets named after 2 other family members. Nobby was the second oldest son and from a young age displayed an adventurous spirit.3 After attending various primary schools, he was sent to Ivanhoe Grammar School where it was hoped his Uncle Syd (the headmaster) would instill a little self- discipline in him. He then attended West Melbourne Technical School and graduated as a mechanic and certified as a Babcocks and Wilcocks Steam boiler operator inclusive. In 1924 the family moved to South Australia and shortly after he left the home environment and toured the north and north west of the state with a Nash van as a travelling motor mechanic. He spent three years at Wilgena Station with AJ and PA McBride and it was here he learned the business of water well drilling.

    Northern Territory June 2012 Monthly Weather Review Northern Territory June 2012

    Monthly Weather Review Northern Territory June 2012 Monthly Weather Review Northern Territory June 2012 The Monthly Weather Review - Northern Territory is produced twelve times each year by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology's Northern Territory Climate Services Centre. It is intended to provide a concise but informative overview of the temperatures, rainfall and significant weather events in Northern Territory for the month. To keep the Monthly Weather Review as timely as possible, much of the information is based on electronic reports. Although every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of these reports, the results can be considered only preliminary until complete quality control procedures have been carried out. Major discrepancies will be noted in later issues. We are keen to ensure that the Monthly Weather Review is appropriate to the needs of its readers. If you have any comments or suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact us: By mail Northern Territory Climate Services Centre Bureau of Meteorology PO Box 40050 Casuarina NT 0811 AUSTRALIA By telephone (08) 8920 3813 By email [email protected] You may also wish to visit the Bureau's home page, http://www.bom.gov.au. Units of measurement Except where noted, temperature is given in degrees Celsius (°C), rainfall in millimetres (mm), and wind speed in kilometres per hour (km/h). Observation times and periods Each station in Northern Territory makes its main observation for the day at 9 am local time. At this time, the precipitation over the past 24 hours is determined, and maximum and minimum thermometers are also read and reset.

    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.

I have great pleasure in presenting the second Annual Report of the Heritage Council. 2013–14 was the first full year of the operation of the Heritage Act, which commenced in October 2012. There have undoubtedly been some teething problems, but on balance the new Act is working well. When a place is nominated for heritage listing, the new Act requires decisions to be made in a timely fashion. The Council has been meeting these requirements, and this is a good outcome for all stakeholders. There are seven new heritage places and three new heritage objects on the NT Heritage Register. The new system for work approvals is also working well. The majority of decisions in relation to proposed work to heritage places are now taken by the Heritage Council instead of the Minister, and strict new timelines on making decisions about proposed work are being observed. The Council has also been involved at a more strategic level in matters of heritage management, providing input into several proposals affecting the Darwin CBD.

    Coomalie Planning Concepts and Land Use Objectives 2000 Supports the Northern Territory Government’S Vision for Coomalie for the Next 20 to 25 Years

    Department of Lands, Planning and Environment Foreword Part 1 - Planning Concepts of Coomalie Planning Concepts and Land Use Objectives 2000 supports the Northern Territory Government’s vision for Coomalie for the next 20 to 25 years. The Planning Concepts provide the direction and stimulus for public and private developers and the consent authority. This should facilitate the development of Coomalie in a manner which preserves its rural nature while recognising opportunities for continued development at a sustainable level. Part 1 - Planning Concepts provides the background information to Part 2 - Land Use Objectives. The Batchelor Division of the Northern Territory Planning Authority has been directed, and it is intended that any future Coomalie consent authority will be directed, to take the Planning Concepts into account along with those matters listed under the Planning Act 1993, when considering a development application. Part 2 - Land Use Objectives of Coomalie Planning Concepts and Land Use Objectives 2000 contains the land use objectives which have formal status by virtue of declaration under section 8(1) of the Act. Part 2 - Land Use Objectives establishes the framework for planning control within the Coomalie Sub- Region. To achieve this, land use objectives are provided under Key Objectives for the entire Sub-Region and under Land Use Objectives for specific land uses. The general discussion of issues assists in interpreting and implementing the objectives. The Coomalie Planning Concepts and Land Use Objectives 2000 aim to provide a co-ordinated and strategic approach to land use planning in Coomalie. In due course, the NT Planning Scheme Coomalie will apply to the entire Coomalie Sub-Region and parts of this Scheme will translate the land use objectives into planning practice.
