Good feedback Gary but the numbers suggest you're not quite right. Yes I am sure many of the Grey Nomads are on tight budgets, I personally travelled around Aus in 1997 and was on a shoestring, couldnt imagine doing a flight like this then. However, we cant keep up with demand as it is now, air tourism is booming in the area, we have 7 bases in the kimberely alone, each of them booked to capacity, someone is cashed up, the sheer number of flights from Turkey creek to the Bungles tells us that indeed many many people either dont have a four wheel drive or are reluctant to use it to get to the bungles and other remote areas, I really really wanted to go to Wolfe creek back in 1997 but my car was on LPG and I couldnt get the gas to do the trip. Have a look here
www.slingair.com.au for a list of some of our current flights. I am not asking this question to beat up business, I couldnt care less, I do the ICT for the company I am not invovled in the tourism side. My interest is in taking like minded people to the Crater, no one is doing tours to it and I think it would be a unique experience.
cheers, dennis.
P.S. Hi Ron, yes I am very overdue for a visit. Soon I hope.
