- The organisers of the 2019 Australian International Airshow at Avalon Airport in Victoria, held a media day preview of the upcoming airshow, for select media outlets to promote the upcoming show.
Aviation Spotters Online Videographer Mark Pourzenic was fortunate to attend and capture this special event.
In the morning, select media where given the chance to fly onboard an RAAF C-130J Hercules over the Melbourne CBD with a specially marked Royal Australian Air Force F/A-18 Hornet as their subject.
Following this, speeches where given by Mr Ian Honnery, CEO Aerospace Australia, The Hon. Martin Pakula MP, Minister for jobs, Innovation and Trade, AIRCDRE Glen Braz, CSC, DSM, Commander Air Force Training Group, RAAF and Mayor Bruce Harwood, City of Greater Geelong.
Once formalities where over, a mini Air Display was held featuring current frontline and historic aircraft, which make up the air displays that will dazzle the crowds over the coming week at Avalon Airport.
The speaker boxes should be behind the crowd facing back to the runway as I have had great pictures spoilt by those boxes stuck up in the air. They are bloody annoying.
God I love those classic hornet flight displays, had one over here in the west a few years back at Pearce open day, went on for so long people were heading back to their cars to head home. Why land with spare fuel in the tanks I guess.
Great video. Thanks for uploading. Greeting from the Netherlands.
Nice 😍🎉🎉 plans i liked all
Nice catch awesome
Luv seeing the fully tanked Super Tweet and REALLY love hearing dual Merlin's in full song..
Victoria ! Always Bloody Victoria ! Small State ! Wanna be Big , Syndrome !
Avalon needs to do something about those speakers. They also need more food stalls. The food lines were long and choice was minimal.
Bring in some older aircraft like a Phantom or Mirage or Harrier. Some European fighters like the Typhoon or Rafale. And of course the Russian Migs and Sukhios.
Let’s watch the Australian national aerobatic champion do the routine that won gold.
Get the Super Hornet to do a canon run firing blanks! Now THAT would sound awesome.
I have many more ideas but I digress.
Do any one of these and we will come back.
Only way to replace a Herc is another Herc. No arguments.
Nice
When you see the Hercules stunting around like that, landing and taking off in those short distances and realise how much it can carry you know why it's been in constant demand since the 1950s. The only thing that can replace a Herc is another Herc.
It'a bit like the "A10" Thunderbolt replacement.very hard
Karl P well they could have given it a wash. Black streaks running down the sides is an no no. My Col would have kicked a$$ if he saw a bird look like that.
Especially when they are empty.
@@CJP-oz6hr Hah, almost all look like rocket comets when very light.😀
😮😮😮😍😍😍💜💜💜
That hawk tho !!!!!!
alex conway they’re quick!
Aviation Spotters Online that they are. I remember when I was a kid and my family where still in the raf I got to sit in the hawk t1 that part of the red arrows
Im going saturday (tomorrow). tickets already booked.. cant wait!!!!
Mark it’s going to be hot so keep your fluids up.
Cannot wait! Two sleeps to go until the public show opens :) Really good footage!!
If you do a student trial flight, apply for an aviation reference number and get a student license (free), you are technically a pilot and can go on the trade days.
See you Friday Avalon Air Show
In Adelaide
Nice to hear those engines ! 😎👍

Where are the F35A JSF?
seeya there on thursday
Spitfire and Mustang still kick the arse of everything else!
I went to 2019 Wings Over Wairarapa Airshow in New Zealand, was a terrible show
Ricky Julian I agree
Go to ohekea
Are you going to see the B52 that did not get to Wing Over Wairarapa in NZ sat 23
There is a B-52 scheduled for both Static and Aerial display for the Avalon Airshow, hopefully it will be present
It cost the us a thousand dollars a minute to fly the old girls. But if they made a promise, that should have should have shown up.
I thought the Aussis have stricter gun control.
I can't go anymore....my wedding anniversary was on this weekend...now my new girlfriends birthdays is. Dammit.
Damn! a wife AND a girlfriend. Dude, you're the envy of every man alive
No F35's or drones such as the MQ-9 Reaper flying on the Media Day?
Bodhi Sattva the F-35’s didn’t arrive until Monday due to operational requirements. Reaper was on static display only.
14:26 Now that's what i call a low-rider XD
What's the jet flying with the Spit and P51?.
Tony Sanger Cessna A-37 Draogonfly
So exciting
Thanks for sharing this!
Awesome footage!
4:15 What is that??? I though it could be an su-25, but nope, can some answer?
It's called a dragonfly. An American close air support aircraft. I can't remember it's full designation. Apologies
@Andrew Fry Thank you very much. Never knew that plane existed.
Where are the new tricks?? I have seen these all in 2017 :((
is the public show good enough, worth attending? and how is the parking arrangement there? I am thinking of driving from Melb.
@@reckz420 the parking is huge and pretty well organized but if you don't get there early you walk miles through heat and dust to get to the entrance , movement of cars can also be very slow once you leave the freeway and turn into the single lane road that leads you into the car park area. getting out seems quick , getting in, not always .
@@louislungbubble Thank you so much for the tips and advice.
@@louislungbubble organizers should arrange shuttle buses running back & forth b/w airport and the parking area specially given the crazy heat wave currently settling in.
St. Devil I think they do run shuttles. Catching a train was easy. They have shuttles from the station.
Very much appreciated mark. Couldn't make it this year. Thanks for caring n sharing....
highpriest025 thanks and glad that you like it.
