And to co-incide with the first flying weekend of the year, a quote from the Sydney Morning Herald:

"Temora council took the opportunity on Saturday to rename Menzies Street as Tom Moon Avenue, to honour the aerobatic display pilot who was killed just over a year ago, when his plane crashed at the airport while he was practising his display routine. Tom was a well-known and much-liked director of the marvellous Temora Aviation Museum, and four-time Australian national aerobatic champion. Menzies will not be forgotten, though. The council has plans to name the caravan park at the airport Menzies Place."

Tom died 20 Jan 2009.
