Squeezed into SAAM's newer hangar along with their P-3, this Caribou is one of 29 taken on strength by the RAAF from 1964. It was allocated to 38 Sqdn at RAAF Richmond but soon deployed to New Guinea till 1971, training crews for Vietnam service. During one of its flights there, an RAAF C-47 missing since 1945 was discovered. A4-225 continued in service with 38 Sqdn at Richmond and Amberley until retirement in 2009 and was placed in open storage at Oakey, QLD till acquired by the SAAM in 2016

One of many CAC-built MB-326 all-through jet trainers used by the RAAF, A7-026 was assigned to the CFS at East Sale in 1968 and later flew with the 'Roulettes' aerobatic team. It crashed in August 1985 at Saltash but like several of the type, it ended its service life as a ground instructional airframe with the RSTT at Wagga Wagga. Acquired by the SAAM in 2004. The Macchi's service life in Australia was cut short by structural fatigue and while some were re-winged in 1990, all remaining aircraft were withdrawn by 2001

A3-115 was part of an order for six extra two-seat Mirages, built by GAF in Australia. Delivered in 1973, it was flown by 2 OCU and 77 Sqdn then ARDU until withdrawal in 1986. After 1999 it was displayed inside the gate at RAAF Edinburgh, one of the bases used by ARDU. Moved to SAAM in 2018

First taken on charge by the RAAF in 1942, this is a very long-term restoration project using parts from other Ansons, primarily AW965/VH-FIA

One of 68 PC-9s acquired by the RAAF, this is actually A23-032 painted to represent an ARDU aircraft. It originally flew with the CFS 'Roulettes' team and then moved on to FAC duties with various units in the toned-down grey livery.

Memphis Belle has been a resident at the Palm Springs Air Museum for around two years now. It is slowly being brought back to airworthy status. Engines and props have been receiving attention and other matters still need to be addressed. The plan is to have it flying again, but when that happens remains to be seen.

This 767 arrived in the pink glow of an Alaskan sunset last night from Hamilton, Ontario.

Delivered new 10 days ago and here arriving from Toronto on its first visit.
