Although the Australian Inter-national Air Show was an obvious showcase for the RAAF, Navy also took to the skies.

The show at Avalon Airport, Victoria, from March 20-25, featured flying displays by a pair of Squirrel helicopters and a Seahawk helicopter, while a Sea King and a Seahawk were on static display.

Navy also highlighted elements other than aviation. A Brand Navy display featured a model of a Collins Class submarine and photos of Navy’s personnel, events and activities.

The Australian Clearance Diving Team 1 also put on a show for the public.
