Andrew, is Gibb River an old RAAF field from WW2? Looking at Google Earth, it appears that there was another runway at one time, about 11/29.
Cheers now, Rattler

To the best of my knowledge, no it wasn't, but the data I have on RAAF Bases is incomplete. The whole northern part of Australia was dotted with airfields during WWII, some of which were built by the Americans. It could have been an American base that was subsequently abandoned and then just used as a civilian airfield.
