End of Williamstown airport and the nearby Salt Ash bombing range are a great place to see FA18's in action for anyone around Port Stephens/Newcastle area.

I absolutely soaked up the tales of Len Beadell. That hearkens to his era.

I bought all the Len Beadell books I could find for my Dad, before he passed. I have a copy of our family tree on one side, where it mentions that Dad's dad was involved in the building of a 14 mile water race from Bowling Alley Point to gold mines at Nundle (NSW) in 1935, so I thought it might be in his blood.

My Dad really enjoyed Len's stories.

This years show was shithouse, even 2023 was streets ahead. That was the best of a rather sorry session, nothing worked that day, the lens just had no idea what AF meant, the F-22 didn't go up that day, the F-16 was muted.

Not anymore - because the F-18 Hornets that were based at Williamtown are all retired.
Note: there's no "s" in Williamtown

A variety of aircraft based at Williamtown still use Salt Ash Range, mostly the F-35 and the Hawk.
I spent my RAAF career working on the Hornets at Williamtown.
