| Remarks: Rear view of RAAF F-111C A8-125, carrying an AGM-84A Harpoon missile at Fairbairn in May 1985. The First three of the RAAF's newly acquired F/A-18Bs were also displayed for Air Force personnel that day, including a demo flight for the Minister for Defence (Hon. Kim Beazley) in F/A-18B A21-103. (A21-101 and A21-102 were on static display.) A8-125 was the first F-111C acquired by the RAAF, and she was also the last F-111 flown by the RAAF (by CO 6 Sqn WG Cdr Michael Gray, at Amberley on 03Dec2010). The aircraft retired wearing a 'maritime grey' paint scheme. (The Canberra Air Traffic Control Tower is visible at left.) |
