The jets with the F111 were the RAAF Hawk Trainers -looked puny in comparison

[Mavric]

i thought it was the russian cargo carrier could be wrong

[46n2]

Are you thinking of the Antonov they're gigantic

The C-17 just flew over again with an F-18 in tow

[Mavric]

yea thats what i thought it was but then again it was a long way from where i was... Port melb and city are close but not to the eye of a plane

[R31Nismoid]

There was a big jet of some kind also

[ctjet]

tailgating SOB

[GTAAAH]

Yeh i saw same thing, some big assed army cargo plane and a jet tailgating it, looked down a sec looked up and couldnt see a jet, so assumed either jet overtook or cargo slammed on the brakes

[KamikazeR33]

oh nice didnt know it was on this weekend sweet i have sunday off work

[46n2]

Apparently traffic on the way out there in the morning is a nightmare!

[ctjet]

Maybe its Howard coming back from Iraq and the guy in the F-18 cant decide whether to shoot him out of the sky or not

... i say go for it

[Savage Bliss]

Yeah looked they were about to fly into my building! Good shit! I work with defence force, they couldn't tell me why they were there. I was speaking to people from interstate though!

Airshow.........

there were 4 f18's and a USAF kc10 tanker parked at tulla when I was last at work. Should see some more stuff this week too. I love working at the airport, didn't go to the motorshow but still saw most of the good cars that were there Still undecided about going to the airshow......

[R TUNE]

hey guys ive being at the air show for the last to days so far for work. it loude and fun, we got a c-17 f-15-16 and 18s f111s awacs and s loads of other air craft. and more to come inc a b1 bomber and a b52 is going to do a fly by on sat or sun.

you guys should come donw

[Pax-Ottomanica]

Australia doesn't have f-15's & 16's, wtf are they doing here?

We have a small airforce with some 90 or so F-18's and out-dated F-111's

Although we should be acquiring some of these in the near future.. F-35 with other partnet countries such as; USA, Italy, the sphincter of the universe, UK, Denmark, Norway etc..

is the first photo a photochop? It looks sort of weird.. Not to mention, I can't imagine one of those c17's fitting ont a carrier, they're so damn huge!

although carriers are pretty bit too.. so :S:S

[SABBAi]

While I was walking into a customer site yesterday in Victoria Parade, I spotted a ADF C-130 Hercules, with what appeared to be a F-18 refueling. But I wasn't aware that the Hercules were used for refueling?

ummm airshow....other countries do come.....

lol 90, funneh, try more like 9......we might have 81 other ones but there probably in a shed somewhere broken.....

yeh we'll get them when we get rid of our broken f-111's in 10years, and we'll probably buy them second hand of the US cos they have decided there too old and shit
