Tomorrow will be my first airshow since Temora about 7 or 8 years ago, and a first for my 2 young kids. I hope they like it!

If you could not make it down to WOI 2013, here is what you missed out on.
Crowd numbers looked good, plenty of static displays, and a good flying program. The RAAF painted the F111 before delivery to HARS, who polished it a few days before the event - the aircraft looked immaculate. The Connie was out for maintenance but still on display, while the Catalina, Caribou, DC-3, a Provost and some Temora aircraft were all flying. There were even a few interesting examples in the GA fly in flight line. The Roulettes performed, as did one of the Hawks, and the RAAF Hot Air Balloon. Pretty good value for the $25 entry.

The Stearman, one of my favourites
Falco F8L New Zealand registered Karman K-1200 Returning from their display Contrast of years, the DC-3 and Matt Hall's MXS-R rated to +/-14G Metor F8 Matt Hall did a very impressive aerobatic display, and talked about the performance with the commentary team. P-51 Mustang, another of my favourites The Jet Provost flying display was great, a dirty pass and plenty of noise.
