A question posed from a non aviator friend below, direct quote.
"question for you...do you know what the plane thing was that flew from the mainland over Hobart one evening maybe 10 years ago?
It was quite amazing and traveled so fast. Was trying to look it up but not having any joy"
Apparently people went down to the regatta grounds to watch, so some sort of planned display.
Also aircraft came from Brisbane and it was at night. I'm guessing F111 out of Amberley on the farewell tour - timeline fits.
Any military aviation historians able to shed some light, maybe link to footage?
Cheers
