Nice one Piano. There is a Facebook page called 'Australian Aircraft Spotters Group'. Have a look,it's quite an active group with lots of photos. I think they would urinate their trousers seeing your photies.

Nice photo of XXH. Looks even better when old Bob is snap rolling it at the top of a loop.

Doesn't seem that long ago that Bankstown used to look like that first link with the Sid Marshals hanger full of goodies (Coupla Spits, the 109G and that Oscar hanging from the roof). The Lockheed was parked out the front for years.

Well, that's actually what happened to the pilot on the first ever F-14 ejection. They were inbound and suffered a hydraulic failure, also the first of its kind.


Watch from 0:52 - 1:12. For those that haven't watched the Fighter Fling videos I would highly recommend them!
