    Aviation buffs: Qld Airshow

    I know there are quite a few aviation buffs around here (even a pilot or two, one of whom we haven't heard from for a while, Timmo).

    There is a BIG airshow being held on the weekend of OCTOBER 2 & 3 at the Amberley Air Force Base (outside of Ipswich).

    It will be the biggest airshow Qld has seen for 25 years and there will be aircraft from all over the world turning up, I am unreliably informed. ( [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img] )

    It will help make up for the disappointment that was the RAAF 75th Anniversary Airshow washout.

    If anyone else is intending to go, let me know.
    It's not broken. It's "Carbon Neutral".

    My family and me are definitely going, the children want to catch the promised ride in the hot air balloon they were missing at the Caboolture show. And, the best thing: I'm actually off this particular weekend :!: :!: :!:
    Smart as I am I took ARL, just for them not being able to making me go to work again.

    There are people who spend all weekend cleaning the car.
    And there are people who drive Discovery.
