Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

Amberley air show.

Post by Motty »

G'day Guys,

I'm not sure whether this is ok here or if it belongs on the airshow board but here are a few highlights from the Defence Force Air Show at Amberley, Australia last weekend.

Special markings commemorating 50 years of Herks.
Image

Hawk 127 from 76 Sqn.
Image

Vampire from the Temora museum.
Image

Winjeel warbird from the Mustang Fighter Trust at Caboolture.
Image

Hornet display by 3Sqn's "Purple Cobras".
Image

Some interesting formations were put up over the weekend. This one was the "bombers".
Image

This one was "Fighters". (There should be a CAC Sabre in there before too long ;-) ).
Image

And, of course, what we all really went to see. Pigs! :D
Image

Image

Image

Hope you like 'em.

Cheers,
Motty.

Exactly my thoughts as well. F-111 and Canberra, my two favourite military aircraft, in one formation, unbelieveble :shock:

That's a SUU-20 rocket dispenser used for training purposes. See also http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ac/equip/suu-20.htm

Great pix! I feel fortunate to actually witness a F-111 doing a dump and burn at Fairford 1993. A sight to behold!
