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. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()
