We get the RAAF doing low fly overs out here in the bush. Somtimes I think
they must use Coombell and Rappville as way points on their missions. They
also use the range behind us to practice terrain tracking. They
scare the living be-jeezus out of ya. When they come in at 200 feet doing
what ever you only hear them leave. A few months back I was in the garden
when one chap came across. this was the first time I could hear him coming
I got a few seconds warning to look up at him flying right over head maybe
200 m above I could see his head gear and the components on it quite clearly.
The best view is watching them skim the tree tops a 1km or so away they
look awesome with the sound over there and the aircraft way ahead. I love
them and would love to have a ride.
When I used to live in Sydney I used to take my son Jake down to watch
aircraft take of from the airport. Never able to get that close but there
were a couple of spots in Mascot that could get you good views depending
on the runways being used. But that would of been awesome!!!
