RAN A4 Low Level Pass - RAN A4 Low Level Pass.jpg (0/1)
This view was taking in june 1977 near Djibouti, during PassEx between FS
aircraft carrier Clemenceau and this TF (2 HMAS and 1 HMZAS). This ship was going to England for honor the QE2. "Lance Link Secret Chimp" a écrit dans le message de news: Flying balls to the wall! I still hear sometimes the sound of an A-4 passing overhead as they visit from the RNZAF to do Airshows at HMAS Albatross (Our Naval Air Station) and while here must do "Kippy rides" (I guess) around the region here in Oz (Southern NSW). As a young Naval Cadet I spent 10 days onboard Melbourne and managed to get a fairly good look around including sleeping next to a bloody hatch on a fold out rack that I'm sure dated from her commissioning in WWII! Fun time! Enjoy |
