Help Wanted - Formation Information Needed
Hi all,
I stumbled across this incredible photograph while going through some of my late grandfathers collection of memorabilia. The photo was taken in Darwin and it depicts a unique formation of 5 aircraft: Lead aircraft = Vulcan bomber 2nd aircraft = Canberra bomber* 3rd aircraft = Sabre 4th & 5th = Dassault Mirage If anyone can provide details on the date of this flypast and the occasion it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Flightfocus http://i1380.photobucket.com/albums/...sqc7juojn.jpeg * Edited to change aircraft type. Thanks Capt Fathom! |

Aircraft #2 is probably a Canberra.

Probably an air defence exercise in June 1968. This film shows all the aeroplanes that feature in your photo i.e. Vulcan, Canberra, Mirage and Sabre: https://www.awm.gov.au/collection/C189656 Rgds |
