Notes:

Aerial front view of newly delivered F-111Cs A8-125, A8-127 and A8-126 (viewed Left to Right) on the apron at Amberley on 01Jul1973, before the 'Carports' were built. (The ‘Pigs’ were later invariably parked in ‘Carports’.) A8-125 was the First F-111C Delivered to the RAAF (on 01Jun1973 – along with A8-126 and A8-127.) A8-125 took part in the final flying display at F-111 retirement ceremony on 03Dec2010. A8-125 was the last to land, therefore becoming the world's last flying F-111. (Tenth Anniversary was 03Dec2020.) Ref: ADF-Serials.
