Orbx Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Established in 1921, Essendon Airport is Australia's second oldest international airport after Sydney and marks its centenary this year. Now known as Essendon Fields Airport, it plays a very important role in the aviation sector for Victoria and hosts a large mix of non-aviation-related businesses. It is also the home to the Australian headquarters for Orbx, which was featured in our Microsoft Partnership video. Originally called St Johns Airfield and then Essendon Aerodrome, the airport played an important role in Australia’s growing civil aviation industry as well as defense operations during WWII. As passenger services grew, Essendon operated as Melbourne’s international airport from 1950 until 1970 when the present-day Melbourne International Airport opened in the neighboring suburb of Tullamarine. $22.72 AUD Sales tax will be calculated at checkout where applicable.
