I think we may be drifting away from Warin's original question.
If you look at the LINZ meta-data:
http://apps.linz.govt.nz/topo-data-dictionary/index.aspx?page=class-runway_poly
their definition of what an airstrip is:
"an area that consists only of a grass (sometimes limestone) runway in a
remote location"
and given that they are shown on topo maps they would be permanent.

I know there are some airstrips in SEQ that are privately owned & no-one
is allowed to land without permission - should they be mapped as
possible emergency strips?
There are also charter planes that operate of the beach at Fraser Island
- should that stretch of beach also be shown as a 'strip?
Thanks

Runways are permanent and maintained, often even managed.
Former runways aren't runways.
Airstrips are more changeable than seasonal watercourses.
So I guess what you are saying here is that airstrips are ephemeral
and as such cannot be verified? That would suggest that they
shouldn't be mapped.
