Cowra Aaaa Fly-in (et Al)

[siznaudin]

ok, it isn't a flight, but since I seem to be the only TAA member who was at this event (surely someone else was there!) then here goes - with a bit of a lead up as we drove (yes... earthbound travellers, we were) via Tocumwal & Temora, where the Lowy Spitfire is as you will see, undergoing some $eriou$ surgery. If any other TAA'ers were at Cowra, please post your pics! We start off with the superb pylon mounted B24 1/4 scale model at the Tocumwal golf club, followed by the Dakota outside the Mulwala RSL then two CASA C-12's (1984 construction, I find!) used for armed services parachute training at Corowa. More to come, ten images at a time. Stay tuned!
