Speaking of ring-ins:

Put 4 October 2015 in your calendar to be at the RAAF Museum at Point Cook. Why?? Because the Interactive Flying Display will be three aircraft - the Mustang, Kittyhawk and PC9. The show commences at 1:00 pm sharp so don't leave it to the last minute to get here. An aerial show not to be missed.

Tragically I will be in Melbourne the Sunday before this date!

What is the aeroplane to the right of your CT/4 photo Errol? Looks like something with canopy and engine covers on it?

[ErrolC]

I think it is the nose of an early model Herk - B or E model? There are several large aircraft outside.

Yeah now that I look again, seems right. Cheers.

There are two Herc's on the display hangar side, An E & H. The 130B is further to the south. From what they said in March, it looks like a P3C will soon join the fleet and they really need a big hangar to put them in.

Hi guys,

Was just there last week. Great spot, certainly quite a bit happening and plenty of interesting machines there. Here are a few of the more interesting types.
Also had a look at the Beaufighter @ Moorabbin. And while we're talking Aussie museums, the Beaufort up at Caboolture, very impressive indeed.
Had a go at posting a few snaps via Flickr but I give up...
