Last F-111 Flypast!

As I write these words, I can hear the F-111s fly overhead for the last time here in Brisbane.

I'm in the CBD and 7 Pigs flew past in formation (with the accompanying F-18 photo escort), with two breaking off to fly North (I think) and the other 5 (with the F-18) to go South!

Quite disappointing really, just a single pass, probably due to the low cloud in the vicinity of the city.

An historic day for the RAAF and the Boeing maintainers.
