Cooma–Polo Flat Airport is an unlicenced airfield located in Polo Flat, an industrial area of Cooma, New South Wales, Australia. The airfield is used primarily for recreational flying. Polo Flat is at a lower elevation than the nearby Cooma–Snowy Mountains Airport and is less prone to closure during bad weather and fog.〔(Parliament of New South Wales Legislative Assembly, 2002, Third Session of the Fifty-Second Parliament – Questions and Answers )〕 == History == Polo Flat airfield was established by 1921, when the aviation pioneer Charles Kingsford Smith arrived at the landing ground on a barnstorming visit to the region.〔(Weekly Bulletin – The Rotary Club of Cooma Inc. )〕 In the 1950s and 60s, the airfield was further developed to service the Snowy Mountains Scheme and the original hangars and terminal building are still in use today.〔(High Flyers – People with disabilities take to the air )〕 In 1998, the site was sold by the Snowy Mountains Hydroelectric Authority for private use. In 2001, the facilities were adapted by the new owners to provide facilities for training pilots with disabilities through the "Wheelies with Wings" charity organisation.〔 In 2003 a flying school, Snowy Aviation Academy, was established at the site.〔() 〕
