Just south of Los Gatos (a few thousand miles). Surprised you haven't heard of it! :lol:

I think James was funning us because of all the USN aircraft in attendance at their Austrailian show.

Suckered again! I am usually quite cautious on April 1st...but Dec 1st ?!!
You have no idea as to how much time I spent in Sydney looking for the illusive NAS Kings Cross.

Yeah, April 1st comes at a different time of year Downunder. They also don't have a 4th of July. They skip from the 3rd right to the 5th! :lol: :twisted:

Glad to see someone fell for it. ;)

It was really the Antique Aeroplane Association of Australia's Victorian Chapter's Christmas 'Toy Run' fly in.

Here's a couple more. Doug Hamilton's Lockheed 12

The 'RAAF' were there... With Dick Hourigan and Judy Pay's CAC Mustang in 3 Sqn RAAF colours.

If there's interest I'll post a few more.
