Tomago Airstrip

[Clinton McKenzie]

More photos. The first couple show how rough the strip was. No external tanks other than supers, so the aircraft would have been 'relatively' light. (Those tanks and the sidewinder rails were removed for the tow, along with the canopy.)

I suspect the second photo is of the aircraft being towed from where the aircraft came to rest at the south-eastern end of the strip back towards the north-western end near the Pacific Highway. Either that, or there was some passable road from the south-eastern end through to Tomago Road.
