Lots of activity in the air above my place today. First I heard a jet, but by the time I got outside for a look, I couldn't even hear it anymore! Then was a Caribou. Heard lots of others as well. All headed south-west, presumably to Avalon.

Went to the Werribee Open Range Zoo today with the family. We were treated (well I was treated) to various aircraft zipping around. Saw an F-111, 2 F/A-18s, 2 OH-58s and one of the B-1Bs.

 

Looking fwd to the airshow this weekend.

Hi all,does anyone know why nothing from temora will be at the avalon airshow?

I remember sometime back Temora had a fight with airshows downunder and said they would not be part of it again.

 

Something along those lines, but was only a rumour

What a pity, I would have loved to have seen the canberra or the meteor.

I'm not sure how accurate that list is though as there is supposed to be an RNZAF P-3 Orion coming over as well and there is no mention of it on the list. I guess I'll find out.

 

I was really disappointed to see there is not going to be the Meteor, Sabre (is there still a Sabre flying in Aus - I recall seeing a photo of it a while ago but...??) or Canberra.

 

Anyhow I am still excited though as there are many Aus aircraft I have not seen, or have not seen for a while, but I was hoping for a better lineup.

The Temora Aviation Museum are currently restoring a Sabre. There is some info on it in the link Robbo posted above

Ah thanks for that. I do recall seeing a pic of a Sabre in the old RAAF markings e.g. the blue and white roundel. It was flying at an airshow somewhere, but I am not sure if the airshow was in Aus or somewhere else....I got mildly excited at the time as I have always wanted to see a flying Sabre. I've seen a few at museums, but none in flying order.

Some pictures from last night, a few crops here and there. We had to bail today as got rained out and had took my 2 year old and 7 month old kids - and they were not happy in the wet and wind. Will head back tomorrow though.
