Greg Wood 3 Report post Posted September 12, 2009 Hey guys thanks for sharing your pictures! The T-28 Trojan VH-PFM looks brilliant, and nice to see they've now added some nose art. Very disapointed with the number of aircraft on static display only 9, not even a PC-9 from Pearce! And that 'weather' its really ANNOYING every weekend's been miserable for weeks.
