Aussie warbirds on show way back in 1988

Fri May 11, 2012 6:48 am

You always thought warbird aircraft gained crowds attentions.. way back in 1988 in Sydney at the Easter Show the Australian Army and Royal Australian Navy was invited to show their skills off. Army Bell 20A Kiowas and Royal Australian Navy Seak Kings did some great night time flying in a confined area - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZ4e0BdU ... re=related

The Kiowas and Sea Kings have both seen extensive military service in the Army and Navy service and the Kiowas are still in service. Sea Kings were retired in December 2011.

A sad postscript to this video....sadly one of the Sea Kings.... Shark "02" crashed during 2005 in a horrific crash in Indonesia. The crash killed Aussies military personnel.
