Is the Aero club at Jackson's closed for good or are there future plans?

Apparently closed by a large group of "gentleman" pre end of lease according to local source...

Sad day. Many an SP drunk in moderation at this fine establishment....
A lot of history, and some interesting characters, have enjoyed product testing SP Breweries fine ales over the years at the "Swamp" ;)

Mmmmm, should the initials SP and fine ale be used in the same sentence?
I believe that there is no such thing as a bad beer, just some are better than others and SP is in the "other"

SP a bad beer???

What about the side of the box which says:
"Bia bilong yumi
Bia bilong PNG
Bin Winim ol intanesinol bia resis"

My boss saw the writing, and said "Beer belong yummy?? Sure does!"

And I would like to get tickets to see the international beer races.

I remember entering past the Highlander wantok with a shoty chained to his arm at the gate. Aircon & a cold bia with aviation conversation inside. You could even pull a ' night fighter ' if you were lucky !
Can't believe this entertainment is gone . . . . .
