Thought this may be of interest to anyone going along. 
I wonder if they'll let me sprawl naked over the turret of the M1A1? ;D

ADF TO STAR AT AUSTRALIAN INTERNATIONAL AIR SHOW
The Australian Defence Force’s (ADF) biggest and fastest aviation assets will be on display at the Australian International Air Show 2007 at Avalon Airport, Victoria.
More than 40 aircraft, representing the full spectrum of the ADF’s air power will deploy to the largest air show in the Southern Hemisphere.
Air Force’s biggest aircraft and its most recent acquisition, the mighty C-17 will attend. There will also be F/A-18 Hornets, F-111s, Hawk jet aircraft, along with C-130s Hercules, PC-9 trainers, a Caribou and a B707 tanker. The Roulettes will entertain the crowds with brilliant aerobatics.
Army will showcase their Blackhawk, Tiger, Kiowa and Iroquois helicopters, while Navy’s Sea Hawk and Sea King helicopters will be on display.
The ADF will also be well-represented at ground level. An Abrams tank, Australian Light Armoured Vehicle (ASLAV), Navy clearance divers, artillery and military working dogs will be among the attractions.
More than 600 personnel will support the Defence’s presence at Avalon.
Defence’s contribution to the air show is designed to demonstrate the ADF’s aviation and surface capabilities to Australia and the world.
The ADF offers a large number of aviation related career paths, and the air show is a chance to inspire the next generation of air crew and ground support teams.
Defence also sees the air show as an important opportunity to engage with Defence industry representatives, and our international military counterparts who have sent their people and cutting edge assets to Avalon.
The Australian International Air Show runs from 20 to 25 March, with public access from 23 to 25 March.
