Haven’t been to Tindal as it is a long way away and quite remote, so unsure about spotters positions (Is in middle of desert), F/A-18s operate there, more info here:

I’ve been spotting at Williamtown several times, Hawks and Hornets (1 and 2 seaters) operate from here. There is a museum with a viewing deck facing the runways, and my personal favourite spot, the end of the runway. A lot of cars pull up here to watch, and it is not prohibited, very good spot for photos.

Another base I’ve visited is YSRI – Richmond, RAAF
Its a transport aircraft base, and currently houses C-130H/Js, and a 707, “soon” C-17s. Spotting locations are limited to the perimeter of the southern fenceline, as while you can drive around the northern side, views of the runway are blocked by buildings.

There will be an airshow October 21-22 at Richmond also, so spotter areas aplenty 🙂

Relations between us and India are fine from what I know, more of a problem is Indonesia, who are much closer and more hostile.

Awesome drawing Deino, thanks heaps 😀

Not an F-18 🙂

Its an Su-27 Flanker

ACIG has a drawing of the Grey Scheme here http://www.acig.org/artman/publish/article_208.shtml

Been up all night with various stuff and wouldn’t let myself go to sleep till this was done, its 13:54 and I’m off to bed… Night all 😉
