Not exactly flying...

Captured on the highway during the last low-level sortie to her final resting place at RAAF Museum Point Cook.

Sad, but pretty cool nonetheless.....the last pic, seeing her big flat back without the tail is pretty neat.

Should have painted a snout on the disc covering the nose tho !



Thanks Greg

Even de-milled, that's a proud sight.

Note the hefty pivots for the all-flying tail! I bet there's not many piccies of them around.

At least the old girl is going to a museum and not the scrapyard!  Neat pics Greg.

Bit of a shame she hasn't got the old tail artwork.  Do you know if there's any plans for a 'different' paintjob rather than A8-125's as she was last?

More pics here:

Not sure about this one, though I do know the F-111s to be kept will have different schemes.

I'm assuming one in Gunship Grey as in the pic and the other SEA?  Be nice if they reinstated this girl's tail art either way.

Be nice if they kept one in the ARDU scheme.  That was a corker!

As in this scheme?



There will be - I have already seen it.

That's the girl.  Absolutely beautiful scheme.  Great to hear they're keeping a variety.
