Glenn
Yes Ray i took some closeups of the missile threat system too and the undercariage and the air conditioning bay will try to post these tonight! If you want full size copies let me know! 🙂

Holger Kranich
Won-der-ful!

What kind of helo is that on pic 19? Looks like a wild mixture of a Bk-117 and a JetRanger!;)

Glenn
Hi Holger, That's the Aussie Navy's new Bell 429. I got more close up's of one on the ground to put up very soon but maybe not tonight i'm a little tired to mess with photos tonight!

Holger Kranich
So i was not too wrong with the JetRanger!

It has a fascinating shape!
Would be cool to see another shot of it. But dont hurry, take your time!

Wim van der Luijt
Another nice batch of Pictures....

John Thomas
Very nice photos

Ludovic
Wow! Maybe a stupid question, but on pic 1, is it a ventura on the right?

Ray Seppala
Ludovik, that is a Hudson Bomber. It is operated by the Temora Aviation Museum. T'he aircraft with it it the worlds only airworthy P-40F I believe.

Ludovic
Thank you Ray. Very nice aircraft! 😛

Glenn
More photos coming.... 🙂

Glenn
I wish the photos would look a bit better after I spend so long uploading them onto scalemates! They look very washed out compared to the original images and fuzzy. I did downside them from the large files to only a few hundred KB's they look fine before I upload them, oh well.... 🙁

Holger Kranich
Thanks for the additional pic´s of the Bell 429!;)
Cant say why, but i love the shape of it!

Dirk Heyer
Thx for sharing all those nice pictures.
I'm truly jealous. Would be a great moment to see a flying Hudson and Boomerang! Wuuaah!
Both are my top favs of the RAAF veterans. The Tojo Buster, the former veteran of the No. 32 Squadron and later of No 2 Squadron is absolutely great.
And it seems the Boomerang is painted as an aircraft of No. 84 Squadron.
And furthermore many thx for those nice engine close up pictures of the Hercules! Great stuff.

Glenn
Thanks Dirk, If you would like some of the original photos send me an email, I like swaping photos with other aviation fans! email on my profile.

Did you attend the last big air show at Amberley Glen ? A few years back now, 2010 I think, but that was the last Hurrah of the F-111 sadly, before they were buried them, "somewhere in Qld". I just wish I knew where I put the storage chip from my camera ! Doh !

Glenn
No i didn't get to Amberley but saw the last performance at Avalon. I also saw the night alight display a few years earlier at Avalon great to see a dump n burn at night!

M.Julian Marles
so cool!

Soeren R.
Thx for this amazing photos!

I remember the first night time Dump and Burn over Brisbane in 76 and they came in over Mt Cootha, three of them, over Brisbane, one went north to the Sunshine coast, one went south to the Gold coast and the middle one went vertical, WELL !!! There were car accidents all over town, some people thought the bomb had gone off, others thought we had been invaded by Martians, but it was so spectacular mate. just stunning, and Brisbane then built a festival around it and called it "River Fire".
