Default Airshow pics RAAF Richmond

The RAAF held a display day today at Richmond.
It was a bit grey and murky but I still took some pics anyway. Thought I would share them
Thanks to Rusty for getting me a good vantage point!!

Also saw a few models (planes that is) down that way, with Wilco and Dave McFarlane doing theyre bit for promoting Giant Scale.

Thought you might like that shot.
I just wish I could have caught a shot of one of the hornets pulling those high g turns straight over our head.

Rusty, try and get some footage of the Hornets when doing high g speed bleeding turns that come straight over ya head. They were the best! Might pay to take some earplugs.
