Adelaide Airport

Yeah, virtually, because I put them on the same level as the guys who went to the moon 50 years later.

And, of course, that aircraft's preserved for the public to visit at Adelaide Airport.

And don't we love mysteries and history? I see that Amelia Earhart is back in the news in the last couple of days.

They now say they've found the spot where she went down.

Everyone in Adelaide was there.

I've got photographs of it at home.

But when you look at it these days, if an Antonov 124 comes in too, Adelaide Airport, the whole of Adelaide wants to be there because as a teenager, I was at Adelaide Airport when the first 727 came in and that's just over 60 years ago.

And the same thing when Qantas brought a jumbo in in 1971, all of Adelaide was there.

But back then it was, um, yeah, it was kind of, like, a bit secretive at the time.

And I remember, uh, I remember seeing on Twitter at the time that someone caught the Geelong crew coming into, to Adelaide Airport, and I was like, "Uh-oh.

Been caught here." But, um-

Mm

I love that.

I have been into the one at Adelaide Airport.

It is nice and calming, and it does help to ease the anxiety just a little bit.

Yeah, and all these things that they're doing all help when you combine them all and-

Yes.

And the, the scenes at the Adelaide airport, and my old friend Lerato, who used to be the South African media manager, uh, like, kind of pushing people away, the security, uh, team security getting involved, and, uh, it, it became big news.

And when you speak to South African journalists about what happened in Cape Town, for them it all started there, because then we go to South Africa-

Yeah

Um, and I remember the story was, uh, Phil Walsh, the late Phil Walsh, knew that Alex Keith was flying to England to play club cricket, and he was weighing up whether to come back and do a pre-season of footy.

So Phil Walsh flew to Melbourne Airport from Adelaide Airport for an hour, met with Alex Keith at a cafe before he flew out to Heathrow, and then Phil Wo- Phil Walsh flew back to Adelaide.

And in that meeting, Keith became very keen to sign on with the Crows when he got back from playing club cricket overseas.

It's pretty impressive from Phil Walsh, isn't it? But there's a little loophole, and Cat, Cat B rookies are the least likely to land as superstars.

We're doing...

We clean a lot of schools actually around Adelaide, and we clean councils, and we clean actually the Adelaide Airport.

So-

Yep
