DC449 Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Just got back, had front row seats, right on the fence :). The weather was just okay up until 3:00. Very pissed that the F-111 not flying, also alot of people got scared when the small grass fire started. Does anyone know why only 1 roulette was there?

Robbo Posted March 15, 2009 Author Share Posted March 15, 2009 it was probably the solo roulette....... others may have had other commitments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Chop Chop Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Well I thought I wouldn't go becaue I would have just got home from the speedway but it was rained out so I decided to go. Great day out looking at the old and new aircraft. The flying displays where awesome but it was a shame about the weather. The F-111 display was cancelled sue to the crosswind. It is amazing the size of the Qantas B747-400ER and the V Australia B777-300. Next time it's on I will be going to the Friday Night and also the Sunday.

Uncle Chop Chop Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Some Great photos there guys. OK here I go. Some of my pics from the Sunday. It was Cold, Wet and Windy but that just made it evan better. The Blades of a Chopper. Lots of bolts there. The Connie during it's Demonstartion. Because of the Wind, the Connie never flew on this day. Still great to hear and see it in the flesh. 1 of the Hornets in flight suring their flying display. Jetstar A320 taking off to another great Aussie Destination. This is my favorite Pic. It is my new Background Pic. Great angle. Omega MD-11 was a welcome visitor That is only a snippit of what I got. More to come when I get the chance to do some editing. Hope you all enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dougal_s Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Just stumbled upon this on the Street Directory website - a kind of Google Street View of the airshow. It is quite neat, check it out at: http://www.street-directory.com.au/sd_new/mapsearch.cgi?x=144.470603&y=-38.033388&level=6&svid=121687 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
