Obviously being a Long weekend people will probably have plans though.

New Event - Expression of Interest

Hey All Sydney-siders (and anyone who will be in Sydney next weekend).

My Dad and I popped in for a quick look at the Bankstown Aviation Museum today, but didn't actually look at any of the exhibits due to time constraints. Anyway, at $7.00 entry per person, it seems a good deal, and the guys there said they'll probably be moving to Camden in the near future.

So, we're planning to have a proper look next weekend, on Saturday 28 June 2008. If anyone else would like to come down and have a look with us, by all means please do. We'll be there at 1pm to go in and support the museum. I'm sure the guys will be chuffed to take a group of us through

Plenty of aviation merchandise to buy as well, though the only 1/400 models they seemed to have were some of the old Dragon Wings Qantas A380's at $50.00 a pop.

The Museum is on the corner of Henry Lawson Drive and Milperra Rd. Entry is via Tower Rd I think, behind the Hungry Jacks and KFC. You can't miss it, they've got a few DC-3's on the side of Milperra Rd.

Hope to see some of you there.

Dan
