Vlad,
AJ beat me to it with his offer, and Mal mentioned White Gum Farm in his post, so I'll make it three if you get to the Perth area (number 11 on your map). Serpentine airfield - the home of homebuilders in this part of the world. Great grass (and sealed) strip, 100 hangars, about 140 aircraft (flying and projects) and hospitality assured. http://www.sabc.org.au/

We're emphasising the grass runways.
Buckley Intl has 'em too.

Hey Vlad,
We were talking about you today, :-)
I think your going to have lots of the RV family ready and willing to help out.
When you get your dates sorted let us know, there are a bunch of us that want to fly around Australia, so it would be a blast if you could join us.
Cheers

Vlad. Your map at the start of this post looks a bit optimistic to me. All that dashing around in the outback will consume a lot of fuel and possibly not have a great enough return.
The South West around Perth and down to the caost has a lot of good areas to explore and is home to many RVs. I would recommend the North Wast of WA, the Kimberley area, really interesting country good places to stay. El Questro being one. Eastern Australia from Ceduna or Whyalla all around the coast and up to Cairns is where the majority of Aussies live, plenty of variations of country. All up from Victoria inland through NSW and Qld is different again.
Getting fuel can be a problem, dirt strips, grass strips will be common,
Let me know when and I can most probably give accomodation 500km North of Brisbane, nice grass strip. If you get to this area in late May we put on one of the best fly in, airshows in the country at Old Station, just SW of Rockhampton.
