    point cook is incredibly important to aviation history in Australia,it really angers me the way the bureaucrats have wasted what could be a great site.

    strega returned to stock and returned downunder:eek::diablo:
    but seriously though i’d love a whirlwind(and there a few out there that would;))
    a genuine raaf p 40 in raaf pacific markings would be nice.
    or a mk21 beaufighter:D

    again from the Franck report

    if that is not concern for the use of it i don’t know how else to call it.

    I invite all the readers of this topic to read the full Franck Report as kindly posted by Poundskater and tell us what you think about it.

    i’ve read the report and i do agree with some of it there seems to me a glareing problem,as far as i know the united nations didnt come into existance till 1948 !!
    so how would a dmonstration to a body that didnt come into exsitance till after the capitulation of japan solve the problem of the war with japan?
    i’m happy to be corrected on this
