Australian War Memorial Aircraft Photos
« on: April 01, 2013, 03:32:43 PM »
David Wilson has supplied all these photos taken at the Australian War Memorial. The photos were taken under very poor lighting conditions but David has done a great job, many thanks to David Wilson for taking the time and effort to take the photos.

Thanks Gents, many of these are quite unique (I particularly appreciate the close ups of rigging attachments/terminal points) Great reference material and very much appreciated,
Cheers,
Lance

If any of our international friends get the chance to come to Australia, this exhibit in Canberra is an absolute must!!

Having travelled half around the Globe to get there, I can only agree. For WW1 aviation freaks, like us all here, it is a must. AWM houses some truly excellent exhibits. And while you admire them you may watch a fantastic movie made by sir Peter Jackson especially for AWM. It is a couple of minutes long and starts every 30 minutes. Highly recommended!
I only regret, that movie is not available anywhere else...
