    Australian Sabre

    Darren Crabb was well and truely bolted into the aircraft. He undertook four of the five test flights with SQNLDR Paul Simmons undertaking the fifth flight. There are the two pilots authorised to fly the aircraft both at RAAF and Temora Aviation Museum displays.

    Note that the ejection seat fitted is not the original fitted to the Avon Sabre.

    Import/Export Help Info

    VX927, I could not agree more with you. What I am talking about is something that actually happened where false export documents were filed in Australia with an address that was a private residence (supposed to be a business) and the “scrap aluminium sheets and strips” miraculuously regenerated into a Spitfire when it was imported into the UK. I have copies of all the documents and they make interesting reading. Aircraft is still flying in the UK

    Then, of course, if importing to the UK you could always make out a false export declaration from the country of origin under a false address for, say “scrap aluminium sheets and strip”, then when it arrives in the UK declare the import to be a Spitfire………

    Bruce is an excellent speaker and was good enough to be interviewed at Temora during the group’s tour “Downunder” recently. He is a great speaker and really knows his stuff.
