Notes:

Rare Wing View taken from 34 Squadron VIP Falcon 900 A26-077 Cn 77 (with leading edge slats extended) heading towards Canberra's Rwy 30, at the end of a 0.4 hour flight from Sydney on 28May1992. This photo was taken approaching 34 Squadron's home base - RAAF Base Fairbairn. The location was overhead the site of the crash of Hudson A16-97 at 'Air Disaster Hill' a few Km East of Canberra Airport on 13Aug1940. Wartime Cabinet Ministers, staff and crew died in the night-time WWII crash. (The 34 Sqn fleet of five F900s was the largest fleet of this type in the world. They were replaced by Challenger 604s.) Low res photo. Apologies for quality.
