During the first days it is called the Australian International Aerospace & Defence Exposition and these are trade days. The show itself is open on Friday afternoon and evening and during the weekend. Airshows all over the world are basically the same and Australia is no exception. The rare aircraft types make a visit to Avalon interesting, like the dump and burn demo from a F-111 and a flying Caribou. There was also a large amount of civil aircraft ranging from micro ultra lights to a QANTAS Boeing 747. During the flying display the sun will be on the good side (behind you). As this is a mega event in Australia, it is always good to go early to avoid long traffic jams.
