Long past due but still a sad day in aviation history.
On a bright note we got F18 Super hornets to replace them :)

The F-111 is one of the nicest fighters ever IMHO. Its one thing of many we sold to you guys Down Under. Enjoy the SH!

Great shots buy the way.

Will be sad to see such a cool bird grounded. I loved seeing them perform the dump-and-burn.

Dunno if it's true, but a few years ago I read that our F-111's had embarrassed a few U.S. fighter pilots during some war games. They had apparently "shot down" some more fancied modern fighters.


Currently just a P&S, but watch this space.

Cool pics.


He's a politician. It's like being a hooker. You can't be one unless you can pretend to like people while you're screwing them.
