A busy morning on the Executive Airlines apron. In front is Citation Bravo VH-FGK with Executive's logo on the fin, and Beechjet VH-EXB loading up behind. At right is Execujet Lear 45 VH-VVI with WPS titles. In the hangar you can just glimpse the nose of Executive's brand-new Citation 680 Sovereign VH-EXG.

This Skylane isn't going far powered by a 44 gallon drum! It's an ex jump-ship, as seen by the titles and the home-made step on the starboard wheel. It is currently de-registered but was last registered to an owner in Mackay, Qld. Before coming to Australia in 1969, it was N71849 in the USA.

This was one of two RAN 723 Squadron A-109s that had just arrived at Essendon to operate in support of the 'Black Saturday' bushfire-fighting operations. It wears a 'summer uniform' white scheme (the RAN's other two are black and grey). This helo originally operated as an EMS aircraft, based in the French city of Laon from May 2002 and using the temporary Italian rego I-LAON. It was later re-registered F-GLEI. It came to Australia with the temporary registration VH-NPX before being leased to the RAN.

Quite an attractive colour scheme on the Channel 7 news chopper, about to lift off its trolley. This Squirrel replaced an earlier AS-355F by the same name and is actually VH-HSV(3). It was originally registered in Australia as VH-ANZ(3) on 27 March 2001. HSV is part of the TV station's full callsign - HSV 7.

Quite an attractive colour scheme on the Channel 7 news chopper, about to lift off its trolley. This Squirrel replaced an earlier AS-355F by the same name and is actually VH-HSV(3). It was originally registered in Australia as VH-ANZ(3) on 27 March 2001. HSV is part of the TV station's full callsign - HSV 7.

This is actually the third Control Tower to have been built at Essendon Airport. Constructed as a 'temporary' Tower in time for the 1956 Melbourne Olympic Games, it's still going strong today! It was however, finally scheduled for replacement a couple of years later.
