The lineup of aircraft participating in the 50th anniversary of the RAAF. The actual event set for the 28th March 1971, was a total washout due to the tail-end of a cyclone passing over RAAF Base Pearce. This was taken on Monday the 29th with all aircraft ready to depart back to the East Coast. Aircraft in the line-up 77 sqn Mirages with 3 aircraft from 76 sqn Mirages still in the aluminum finish. F-4Es not certain of the number, I think 6 aircraft. Out in the open a lone Canberra, and two C-130s at the back of the line-up.

Note the wing commander pennant on the tail fin also notable is the piping at the exhaust nozzle flaps for smoke generation. A3-19 was one of the "Delta" display team aircraft.
