Colin Leighfield Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 i’m Back in Melbourne airport waiting to start the journey back home. Here ‘s a few snaps from Moorabbin Air Museum. Only IPhone quality, didn’t think to take my good camera. Who recognises the engineering standard model of the CAC 15 Kangaroo? Superficially similar to the P51, but a new design with RR Griffon engine. Over 460 mph, but like others came too late as the war ended and jets were looming.

Colin Leighfield Posted March 4, 2019 Author Share Posted March 4, 2019 Another amazing place is the Moorabbin Antique Motorcycles Museum and Naked Racer Cafeteria! Motorbike heaven but also with an aviation streak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Leighfield Posted March 4, 2019 Author Share Posted March 4, 2019 There are some bad bush fires raging, we saw the start of them around Pakenham while on the M1. This will take weeks to sort out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J D 8 Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Very good Colin,Love the Bristol type's and the diorama around the Beau. Put a CAC 15 next to an MB5 and it would be hard to tell the difference I recon. Cheers John. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
