Geocache Description:

Mount Druitt Aerodrome was a Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) landing ground during World War II. The runway ran down the centre of the current Whalan Reserve in a roughly North-South (NNW-SSE) direction. The cache is situated just off the original runway.

Mount Druitt Aerodrome was a Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) landing ground during World War II. The aerodrome was utilised for a period of time, after World War II, as a storage facility (bomb dump) for United States Army Air Forces and 10,000 500lb general purpose aerial bombs were placed upon the landing strip. Land was resumed in March 1942, for the construction of an aerodrome, two aircraft hangars and workshops on the site. The runway was 5000ft (1524m) long x 159ft (48.46m) wide which ran down the centre of the current Whalan Reserve in a roughly North-South (NNW-SSE) direction.

Cache is a bison tube within camo.
