The Centenary of the RAAF

Tomorrow The Royal Australian Air Force will turn 100 years old. With it's beginnings the AFC Australian Flying Corps in 1912! By the end of WW2 Australia had the 4th biggest Air Force in the world - Today it remains one of the most advanced and capable air forces in the world.



Three cheers for the RAAF!

 

From Bleriots to unmanned aircraft...It has been quite a century.

 

Cool video. What was that warning about to indigenous peoples?

 

In Aboriginal culture it is forbidden to name or show an image of someone who has passed away...for the rest of us it would be wrong to not mention them in history etc...so we put a warning first so that Indigenous peoples can turn off first. Respect.

RAAF is putting on a fly past in Canberra today, I hope to post that soon...
