Over-view to the south-west of historic Point Cook aerodrome. On the southern boundary is the former First World War-vintage seaplane station and jetty, with the modern base area on the western boundary. Point Cook is Australia's oldest operating aerodrome. Land was first purchased for use as a military aerodrome in early 1913 and the Central Flying School opened here shortly afterwards. Today home to the RAAF Museum, you can see two of their Hercules if you look hard!

This 1985 Metro has an interesting history. Originally N614AV with Air Virginia; became Nashville Eagle. Then to Flagship Airlines, then Wings West. In 1987 operated for American Eagle. At some stage reacquired by Fairchild & converted to prototype Fairchild Multi Mission Surveillance Aircraft, carrying a phased-array radar in a long pod under the fuselage. Returned to standard configuration & exported to Australia, becoming VH-SSZ 29 September 1994. VH-EES since Jul 2001. Now awaiting disposal.

Temora aerodrome, site of the Antique Aeroplane Association of Australia's National Fly-in for 2008, looking north west with the shorter Runway 18/36 closest. You can see the extensive buildings of the Temora Aviation Museum at the southern end of the apron, with David Lowy's Gulfstream V parked on its special pad in front of his house. Just to the south of that is GAF Canberra A84-223. There are a few antique aircraft already lined up on the grass, but we were one of the fairly early arrivals.
