Captain Sand Dune, I have to agree about the wankers. Stand in a crowd for any such display and you're almost sure to hear disparaging, "know-all" comments from people, (usually middle aged males), to anyone within earshot, about the RAAF in general or the (usually misidentified) aircraft doing the display.
Almost without exception, such commentators display an ignorance that is staggering.
What was the story with the F111? It seemed to come in through the Heads at about 2000' and turn right almost immediately. It didn't come any further west than Rose Bay before hareing off over Mosman on its way back to Amberley.
And it did arrive about an hour after the F18s.
If you'd have blinked, you'd have missed it.
