Nice photo's mate I am going on the Sunday show (Hopefully better weather )
I can't wait, will be taking plenty of photo's try and get some of the interesting static displays

P.S Does the F-111 have a AIM-9 on one of it's Pylons??? I thought you weren't allowed to have ammunition on during a display

Loved the A380 and the B-1

It could easily be a dummy. Think of all the F-16s that display with "smokewinders". AFAIK (or can find out) the F-111 was never Sidewinder equipped in USAF or RAAF service, but looking at other photos of RAAF '111s, it could be an electronic range dummy missile, ie an electronic box of tricks in a missle type body.

I think the F-16 shot is my favorite.

well im not to sure about the F-111 but it could of just been a dummy just like this one



thanks for the comments i don't have a good camera (its my mums) but it does the job good enough

Gotta love the bone! Nice and loud, eh?

Awesome shots! I'll post mine ASAP.

I'm proud of myself.... got an awesome shot of B-1 taking off right from the fence line. Didn't cover my ears, and DAMN, that thing was loud. I can only remember the B-1 takeing off in slow motion... so loud you can feel the vibrations of the air in your chest, your hair vibrating, the hairs on your arms vibrating.... Looking at the burners and seeing flames jumping out... Then a few seconds later, in a daze, the wash almost knocked everyone over... the wash was nice and toasty too, hahahaha.... it felt like it was summer again.

F-18F flown by Ricardo Travern was nice... as was RAAF F-18, A380 takeoff, the 777-300ER up close was also nice.... the engines were huge.

ALSO. Did anyone see me? Went on Saturday, wearing shorts, black waterproof jacket, and a Royal Australian Navy hat?

Great shots in all your threads. I went Friday night and Sunday, I wish I went on the Saturday would've loved to seen the A380.

I went into Hall B and C but didn't get to hop into Hall A which i really wanted to do

the F-111 had an aim-9 sidewinder, and the superhornet had a couple of bombs a 4 missiles on it.

i started off in the hall i got to the show when it was raining and as soon as they would let people in i went to the orbx part

i was wearing trackies and a jacket saying LETHAL on it with yellow writing


anyway it was fun

ps thanks for the comments as i said i dont have a good camera but i did what i could

Yeah the munitions would of been inert, though would probably have the same weight and aerodynamics as the real thing.
