We went to the Avalon Airshow here in Victoria on Mar 29/30, and saw all sorts of weird cars as well as planes. This seems a good place as any for photos!
I am no plane expert so plenty photos will have no ID. Live with it.
We went to Moorabbin Airport for our ride, in a Cessna Caravan. 12 min flight or 3 hours each way in the car, hmmmm. 🤔

Moorabbin is a major pilot training airport, as well as freight. It's a very busy one, in the middle of suburbia.

Our lovely pilot parked up next to the main runway, alongside other planes.

Saturday is our day to roam around and look at everything on the ground, Sunday we sit in the stand and watch the airshow. Good thing we did this this year, as there was a crash the night below (pilot in hospital) and the airshow seemed incredibly disorganised.
Lots to see on the ground.

Some private pilots are allowed to park up and exhibit their planes.

Now here's what I call weird car content; an Australian made Chitty Chitty Bang Bang version.

I still have the book somewhere...

A type of plane I've yet to have the pleasure of flying in; a sea plane!

The silver plane is from the Papua New Guinea Defence Force.
ATC has a second ATC tower, provided by the Australian Defence Force.
When I see dodgem cars, I too think of the Fast and the Furious

I think this is king of the weird cars at the airshow, the Aussie Invader

Always an interesting mix of vehicles at the airshow

Victoria Police brought a chopper and their Kingair plane along.

We usually get visitors to display and perform, from all parts of the world, which is pretty cool. This year the Singaporean air force came to display.

The Navy version of the Blackhawk, the Seahawk chopper.

Heading towards the far end of the tarmac, where the big planes are either parked up for display or getting ready for flying later.

These things look like they have the worst visibility

Even our Kiwi cousins came to visit!

The Army brought some sons of Harry along, some G Wagons.

The G Wagon replaced the Landies they used for a very long time.
