Flying over Australia's gliding regions I see the odd grass farm strip suitable 
for Cessna 182s, occasionally a larger gravel one for a Baron.
Over Texas I saw a LOT of sealed strips suitable for Citation/Learjets with a 
few for 737s!!

For a country that's broke, sliding backwards with high unemployment there 
seems to be a lot of private/business jet use.

I'm surprised at the alleged increasing number of private pilots too. All the 
figures I've seen show decreasing numbers.
