I'd add Canberra to that list!

One side is Canberra International Airport
https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/-35.30767/149.19034, while the other
is still used for military flights
https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/-35.30218/149.19963

This page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairbairn,_Canberra, says that RAAF
Fairbairn was decommissioned in 2003, but it is still the home of 34
Squadron who are responsible for most VIP flights in & out of Canberra.

Thanks

Graeme
