ANZAC DAY FLY BY



They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.
LEST WE FORGET

After watching the early morning parade we headed up to a place called Kangaroo Point, where we get amazing views of the city and to watch the RAAF FA 18 Super Hornet flyby. It was a good opportunity to get a few departures from Brisbane airport as aircraft heading north banked out over the city before setting course for their destination. The first set of Hornets flew over the city at exactly 10am and then they returned an hour later on their way back to Amberley Air force Base.
I have to say for the 100th Anniversary I was really disappointed as I thought we would have had a lot more air activity.
