Great Vids of 2007 show, pity i didnt get to watch on the trade day....working. Still i was lucky enough to work there the whole time it was on, these are some of the best captured videos i have seen so far..apart from a little shake..=)

If any one is or knows some one in the RAAF it would be realy helpful if you could put their e-mail on here, as i am planning on joining the RAAF and would like to ask them some questions. =)

[segregator236]

I have videos I took of the 2007 Abbotsford Air Show. In the airshow, they actually demonstrated artillery systems as well as tanks and machine guns and amazing jetfighters and bombers. The thing is that I couldn't upload them to YouTube because it was in the wrong video format. :(

[trout2006]

jets power// cars dont have that POWER NO1

[layneraaf]

Yeah i went to the 2001 or 2003 show can't remember which one but i was young.... And they had a Tornado GR1 and some Aerial refuelling!!!

[layneraaf]

That is a great clip i went on 25th and loved it i even got the Payware Aerial Foundry US/RAAF AF-18A and ATF-18A etc.... for FSX :D shpuld of brang a scanner too thats great!

[flyboy172r]

Yeah - im glad we did...just tuned in to 120.1 for the flight displays. I loved the airshow so much I went twice. Did that 2005 too!

[liltwang]

are them guys standing there qantas workers?

i did work experience there like 2 weeks after it finished...

[flyboy172r]

What guys?

[liltwang]

the ones in the white shirts..you can see their red tags around theyre neck

[flyboy172r]

No - the red tags needed to be worn by everyone at the trade day. The guys standing closest to the camera are friends - they are only 17! Still - I wish I worked for Qantas... ;-)

[automangle]

does anybody know who the pilot was in this???? and also wat the name of the australian version of topgun is? i went to this air show, was amazing

[duigan]

What a great Show-- Worth the trip over from NZ for it

[flyboy172r]

The 2005 airshow was fantastic, but this was a hell of a lot better!! 2007 was brilliant! Keep in mind, this is the trade day, I am yet to upload any of the 2 hours of the Public day, soo keep your eye out for it in the next few weeks.

[magicmentalmaniac]
