Towards Tomorrow

The theme of the 2009 Airshow was 'Towards Tomorrow' - emphasising technology through recent developments and future directions. It also celebrated the 40th anniversary of man's first landing on the moon and, to the delight of the Airshow patrons, our special guest was Australia’s first astronaut, Dr Andy Thomas. For many, the display highlight was the pair of USAF Rockwell B-1B Lancer supersonic swing-wing bombers - one flying and one on static display.
