Aussie Hornet, Roulette, Blackhawks.

Anyone know the best vantage points, particularly for the Hornet? Does anyone know who is flying the Hornet? Mick B said 'Acko' in another thread. We've just said goodbye to the pig, could this be the last 1 seat Hornet display? Not long to go:ok:

Don't tell me the Blackhawk is dropping off the Sherrin!!!

He'll be a little early...

(Go the Dons!!!) :E:ok:

given the present state of F1, the air display promises to be the most interesting part of the weekend!!!:(

Jenson Button may agree with you there cattletruck!

If you are inside the circuit, then most parts of the track are pretty good with the exception of the city end of the circuit where a few trees get in the way.
I usually just pick a hill out the back of the circuit.


Outside the circuit I couldn't tell you, but I'd imagine the ovals at the St Kilda end of the track would be a good start.

Don't tell me the Blackhawk is dropping off the Sherrin

Um, that "Blackhawk" is a Seahawk.....

Um...check the edit.

Nice one

:ok:

On Sunday before the start of the race, the Beeb coverage here in the UK showed a Qantas A380 overflying in formation with the Roulette PC9's. Jake Humphrey was heard to say it was "full of passengers on their way to Los Angeles", which somehow I doubt!?

The full set of images is at:

Roulettes hanging out with an A380 to get a head craned skyward these day?

I doubt passengers on board.

A380 was doing circuits near the Bay before forming up...
