Took the family down to the airfield at Evans Heads in Northern NSW for the annual fly in. This was the first time I've been here and for a small show, it had some great aircraft on display. During WWII, this airfield was home to No1 Bombing and Gunnery school, mainly flying types such as fairey battles, Ansons etc. Apparently over a 1000 aircrew who trained here were killed on ops, many in BC over Europe.
First pics are of the always impressive Avenger unfortunately she did not fly today.
Thanks for the kind words guys! Up next is a CAC Wirraway, airworthy but didn't fly on the Sunday, doesn't matter though as I could look at this beauty all day long Looks good in front of the airfields last surviving Bellman hanger from the war.
Thanks guys. Next up is a Grumman Mallard. This was a first for me and I thought see was beaut! Pretty rare to see one down our part of the world as well.
