The Wings Over the Illawarra Airshow is held here annually and is amazing. A bit pricy, but amazing!

Wide range of planes. Must visit in Illawarra

Great spot for light aircraft activity as well as the annual Wings Over Illawarra Airshow.

User

Really well presented and a real joy to see such well preserved exhibits.
My only extra ask would be to see nearly retired QANTAS VH-TAC Airbus A300B4 as an exhibit.
