Great pics mate! Did they have both Spits there, or only the Grey Nurse one?

Like the Yak! Thanks for posting the photos Heinz. Is that a Bristol Freighter in the background, behind 'Suzy-Q'?

Few Harvards, RAAF Tiger Moth and one of the 14 serving Caribous.

Also another short video with the Spitfire Taxying this time. I had limited space of my memory card. I figured a quick video of each of the favourites was better than nothing. Definitely going to buy another video card soon.

Cheers guys. I agree Wildcat it looks great. Im not sure was this Wirraway also painted for a while in the colours of the one that shot the Zero down in 1942?

It was a long day Jason I was pretty knackered when I got home. I live about 2-3hours away from the base. Driving through Melbourne was definitely the low light

Anyway few more with the good ol' Bird dog cessna. Genuine battle veteran from Vietnam with bullet holes! The latest Hercules in the RAAF stable and Roulettes PC9. Only a single PC 9 flew as the rest of the team is in Singapore at the moment. And just 2 shots of the Mustang that lives near me taxying and the Yak moving through the aircraft.

Great shots mate! Thanks for sharing!
Love that Hudson and Mozzie, and tht was a beautiful shot of the Spitty nose!

Also noticed the SAAF harvard in there and the RNZAF one-'NZ1024' I don't know what her original serial was, but I think it was the original '24 that was written off in an airshow accident in NZ in the late 80's/ early '9o's

Ya you are correct A4K the 2 different Harvardsa are there.
I have a video when they are taxying and this little kid was calling to his dad '24' is winning as it was leading the rest out on the runway
It was great to see some young kids so enthusiastic.

Jason the roulettes are aces!
