The state for this airport is wrong
This airport is officially in the state of Queensland and not in the state of New South Wales. The Wikipedia entry for the airport will also confirm this. What is interesting about this airport is that it physically crosses the state line and timezoneboundary between New South Wales and Queensland, so during summer when NSW has daylight saving and Qld doesn't, planes push off from the terminal in Qld time but leave the ground one hour earlier because the end of the runway is in NSW time.
