Default Corowa 2020

Corowa was different this year with a large 1943 searchlight providing the evenings entertainment for all the attendees . The power trailer has a Ford V8 and a hefty 2 phase AC generator. The AC is rectified by some method.
, I should have asked the operator how the rectifying was done in 1943 ? We also had a FW 190 doing strafing runs over the camp ground .... quite a sight . https://australianaviation.com.au/20...e-wulf-fw-190/

Default FW190 Surprise

Re the FW190 Mike - was an awesome sight and sound - he was giving it a (all too brief) blast alright ...
Am a bit of a fan - pix here are of one I was lucky enough to get up close with at Marlborough NZ this time last year.

Finally made some time to put pictures of this years event on here.

Apologies it has taken this long.

Started off quiet at the start of the week but as you can see... numbers certainly increased by the Saturday.

The Bicycle was an interesting item. WW2 Malvern Star painted in the ETS flying school colours.

Jake Nevilles superb restoration of this ambulance.

The Model T, magnificent, complete with Colonel Blimp.

Might interest a few who are into zee German stuff.

To add to Mike and Daves comments. The Focke Wulf was a fearsome sight with a fearsome sound,

I would not have liked being on the ground if I had I heard that sound in WW2.
