Hamish is a domestic air cargo specialist with over 20 years in Australian aviation and freight operations. He writes clear, experience-based guides to help shippers understand how air cargo really works.
Hamish Gough writes for longplay.net.au with a clear purpose: to explain the real world of domestic air cargo in Australia without the noise or guesswork. He has spent more than two decades working across aviation operations, regional logistics, and domestic freight planning. His experience spans airport cargo terminals, airline partnerships, and hands-on problem-solving for urgent shipments in mining, healthcare, and remote-area supply chains.
Hamish started his career on the tarmac, coordinating time-critical freight for scheduled and charter aircraft. Over the years he built a reputation for understanding the full picture — how weather affects cargo windows, how chargeable weight is calculated, and why the smallest handling mistake can delay an entire supply chain. Colleagues often relied on him to explain complex processes in a way everyone could understand, and that habit eventually shaped his writing style today.
At longplay.net.au, Hamish focuses on practical insights, accurate information, and real industry experience. His articles are written for shippers, business owners, and logistics managers who need clarity, not marketing fluff. Every topic he tackles comes from actual questions he’s dealt with in the field.
When he’s not writing or consulting, Hamish spends time visiting regional airfields, keeping up with changes in air cargo regulations, and speaking with operators across Australia to stay close to what’s happening on the ground.
