5DME Adelaide is about aviation for enthusiasts. David, Rob, Patricia and Kirstie are the team (see site credits) behind this site. We hope to provide relevant material that will inform and amaze you. Things you would love to see about aviation! We try to arrange (where possible) collection of data and photographs in co-operation with authorities. We like to get the content that the public do not generally have access (unrestricted material) and provide it for your interest on this site. Where this is not possible, we work from outside the airports but we still try to get
the best content for the web site and for your information and enjoyment.
5DME Objectives:
- Provide a web site for aviation enthusiasts relevant to South Australia.
- Display unrestricted technical information and photos of all aspects of aviation.
- To collect quality photographs that are interesting to enthusiasts, not just publicity shots.
- Photos to make you feel "You are there!"
- Provide reference material and data.
- Be sensitive to security concerns in regard to what is displayed.
- To work in cooperation with authorities and officials.
- Above all, to promote aviation in South Australia positively.
5DME Adelaide is about:
All the best information about aircraft and aviation in Adelaide from Gawler and Edinburgh to Aldinga and Goolwa. Our members are out and about taking the latest photos and videos. We are dedicated to aviation in what would be considered the Adelaide Area. The video and images are all bought back to base and edited then uploaded to this web site for our members and public enjoyment.
Rob and David (founding members) are keen scanner listeners and our blogs (5DME and On the Airwaves) are updated with any aviation news that we come across. Just visit the blogs to find out all the latest news about Adelaide avaition.
Airports we cover in the main are Parafield, Adelaide, Aldinga and a few others from time to time. E.G. Goolwa, Gawler, Edinburgh.
We like to gather content, video and photographs ourselves and publish for your enjoyment on this site. You don't have to work for it (by collecting photos for us) to be amazed by the pictures and news we gain from our members. 5DME do not ask for input from the public but if your are offering, contact us. Otherwise just enjoy the site!
(Web Designer Comment.... "As you can see by most of the headers in the site, I like Fokker aircraft. Particularly F27s and MK50s.")
