YWLM A8-125 Royal Australian Air Force General Dynamics F-111C 18092010
Type: General Dynamics F-111C Aardvark
Operator: Royal Australian Air Force - RAAF
Rego: A8-125
Serial: D1-1
Location: Williamtown Air Force Base - YWLM
Date: 18/09/2010
Notes: RAAF airshow 2010.
I still miss this party trick of the F-111 (apparently only in RAAF service however, I understand the practice was banned in USAF service for safety reasons!).
On the 03/12/2010 this aircraft took part in the last display of the RAAF F-111 to mark its retirement at RAAF Amberly in Queensland. It was the last of the flight to land and so became the last flying F-111 anyware in the world.
