The old DeHaviland factory is just across the street from my high school. Home of the legendary Twin Otter and Beaver.
At the air base that is now the airport. Farmers in the area still dig up pieces of crashed ones every now and then.
The Armoury has been a high end Delta Hotel for decades now. They kept the shell and built the hotel up through the center. It actually looks pretty cool. You have to go a little farther east to get to the real east of Adelaide joys.
