Rare photo of RAAF 1 Squadron F-111C A8-140 taxying with cockpit hatches open on a taxiway at RAAF Fairbairn Canberra in May 1985. F-111C A8-125 was also on static display, complete with an AGM-84 Harpoon missile. Also, the First three of the RAAF's newly acquired F/A-18s were also demonstrated to Air Force personnel that day, including a demo flight for the Minister for Defence (Hon. Kim Beazley) in F/A-18B A21-103. Apologies for the quality of this photo.
