🇦🇺 Angus Downs Airport

Angus Downs Airport (ANZ), also identified by the ICAO code YADN, is a small airfield located within Angas Downs Station, Northern Territory, Australia. It is situated approximately at Latitude 25-01-56 S (-25.0325) and Longitude 132-16-29 E (132.2748), with an elevation of 1724 feet MSL (525 m MSL).

• Type of Facility: While listed with "Public" facility use and categorized as a "small_airport," information suggests its status is "Unknown" and explicitly states there is "no airline service". One source indicates the airport is *closed*. This points to it likely being a private or disused airstrip rather than a public commercial airport.
• Runway Information: The airport features a single runway, designated 12/30, which measures 4504.87 ft (1373 m) in length and 279 ft (85 m) in width. It lacks runway edge lights, runway markings, and an instrument approach system.
• Known Uses: There are no reported based aircraft or annual operations. The broader Angas Downs Indigenous Protected Area, where the airport is located, focuses on conservation, wildlife, and land management. Emu breeding programs at Angas Downs have involved transporting emus to the area via Ayers Rock airport, suggesting that any aviation related to the station's activities is likely for private or operational purposes, not scheduled passenger service.
• Historical Significance: Limited public information is available regarding the airport's specific historical significance. The Angas Downs Station itself has a history as a pastoral station inhabited by Aboriginal people between 1930 and 1980.
