About Middlemount Airport
Middlemount Airport is a small general aviation aerodrome serving Middlemount, a mining town in the Bowen Basin of Central Queensland. It sits at the northern edge of town and mainly supports private and charter flights used for mining, business and community travel.
The airport has a single asphalt runway, designated 11/29 and approximately 1,550 metres long. Operations are conducted under visual flight rules and by prior permission (PPR), reflecting the aerodrome's role as a private, operator-managed facility.
Located about 2 km from the Middlemount town centre, the airport gives travellers quick access to local accommodation and workplaces. Middlemount lies roughly 190 km southwest of Mackay and about 190 km northwest of Rockhampton, with road links to nearby regional centres such as Moranbah and Emerald.
Because Middlemount Airport is a small regional aerodrome, passenger facilities are limited and there is no fuel available on site. Scheduled airline services are available at larger regional airports nearby, while Middlemount continues to serve private, charter and fly-in fly-out travel for the surrounding region.
