As per the above from the Airservices Australia website, folks who live coastal between Willy and Kiama should keep an eye out for some low level Hercules operations between 1520 and 1710 this Saturday. I note that Terrigal is mentioned, if you were to place yourself at The Haven (Skillion) or some other high vantage point in the area you may just nail some great shots. From memory they like to put on some quite tight turns as they come around from Wamberal - Terrigal - Avoca.
If I was still living at Terrigal I'd probably be checking out Wyrrabalong Lookout at Forresters Beach to catch them zooming past.
Hope someone manages to nab some shots.
