| RAAF
Caribou during its amazing flying display. The pilot 'flung' it around
the sky before showing how little runway it needs for a short landing! |
One
of the most capable aircraft ever operated by the RAAF and soon to be
retired, the Caribou displays its short take-off ability. |
 |
 |
| RAN
Squirells performed a very interesting flying display showing the ability
of this smaller helicopter. |

Squirells crossing each other as part of their display. Pity our photographer
didn't get the back helicopter in focus too. |

| RAAF
F/A-18 in during its display flight. This aircraft will soon celebrate
its 20th anniversary in RAAF service. |
F/A-18
Hornet laying a trail of flares to fool the 'enemy' SAMs. This created a
spectacular display during the 'war' games. |

 |
| The
perenniel Australian show favourite, the RAAF's pride and joy, the F111I.
This F-111 is proudly wearing the logo for the Ipswich city centenary,
Amberley's local council. |
Australian's
never tire of seeing this sight - day or night it takes your breath away.
What will we do for show stoppers when the F-111 is retired from service? |

| Three
Roulette PC-9s with WWII North American P-51 Mustang from the RAAF Museum
at Point Cook. You don't see this very often! |
