==Commercial aviation== As a result of the Australian government's [[Two Airlines Policy]], airlines other than [[Ansett Australia]] and [[Trans Australia Airlines]] were not permitted to operate routes directly between major cities. To circumvent this policy, [[East-West Airlines (Australia)|East-West Airlines]] would perform touch-and-go landings in smaller cities along the way. For instance, East-West's [[Melbourne]] to [[Sydney]] route included a touch-and-go landing at [[Albury Airport]], on the border of New South Wales and Victoria.<ref>[https://airlinegeeks.com/2016/04/20/tbt-throwback-thursday-in-aviation-history-east-west-airlines/ TBT (Throwback Thursday) in Aviation History: East-West Airlines], Airline Geeks, 20 April 2016.
