RAAF B707-338 A20-624 at Sydney in July 1990 - there is an Australian Airlines B727-200 in the background.


RAAF B707-338 A20-629 at Tullamarine in 1990 - from memory they were there to have the mid air refueling system fitted (see the
underwing pod).


RAAF B707-338C A20-623 at Sydney in December 1987 - perfectly lined up to look like one aircraft with no cockpit.


RAAF HS748 A10-60x at Sale in April 1984


RAN DC-3 N2-90 at Schofields in November 1985 - I think this was at the air show.


RN Harrier FRS.Mk 1 003 on the HMS Invincible at Garden Island in December 1983 - this was the year after the Falklands War where
the Sea Harrier GR.3 performed brilliantly. The initial 20 Sea Harriers were joined by another 8, 6 were lost through accident or ground fire,
but none were lost in air combat.


RN SRS1 Sea Harrier XZ498 001 at Richmond in October 1988


RAF Tornado F3.Mk 2 ZE728 at Richmond in October 1988


USAF F15 Eagle AF 78-526 at Williamtown in September 1980


USAF Lockheed Starlifter C141 70028 at Richmond in 1982 - a common sight at Richmond as they passed through on their way to
Alice Springs in support of Pine Gap. I finally saw Pine Gap for real when I travelled from Alice to Uluru back in June.
