I believe that the very capsule employed at Ohakea is the same one that has been a travelling exhibit for the RAAF at airshows etc ever since. Tilted at an angle it gives a very good look in the cockpit.

With the two crashes in NZ, and presumably others in Australia, 'NZ Wings' came up with this little ditty:

A daring young pilot named Kevin
Took off in an F-111
He left with a roar at 6:44
And crashed at a Quarter to Seven
