Anzac Day flypast
Good morning
I have just seen six aircraft heading north along the Coast from YSSY. I presume that they are part of an Anzac Day commemoration. Does anyone have details of the aircraft involved? Cheers Mark |

I saw them from home too. I was able to get a few pics. I'll upload them as soon as possible. That might help in identifying the aircraft.

Low quality pic for anyone who didn't see the formation.

With "social distancing" rules, they could be up for a fine.

Was just about to upload my photos when I saw this. It is better quality than mine so I guess I don't need to upload mine anymore.

Taking a closer look at your photo, I recognize some of the aircraft from Wings Over Illawarra last year. I'm going back to those photos now to see what I can find out. Will be back with a labeled photo soon.

Many of Sydney's ANZAC Day events and commemorations have had to be scaled back, digitised or cancelled altogether this year, due to the social restrictions in place around the nation. However, every Sydneysider will still be able to enjoy one annual spectacular in honour of our brave ANZACs, just by looking up.
Air Combat Australia has partnered with Paul Bennet Airshows to put on a breathtaking formation flypast that will pass over the whole of central Sydney and Parramatta on Saturday morning. Beginning above Camden at 8.45am, the aircraft will pass over Campbelltown at 8.50am, cross the Harbour at 9.05am before heading on to Manly and the North Shore suburbs at 9.20am, and then finally back inland over Parramatta at 9.30am. Eight death-defying pilots will fly in formation over the city, and with clear skies forecast for Saturday morning, they should be easily visible from balconies and backyards across Sydney. While the pilots will be maneuvering around each other at close quarters, they'll still be the requisite 1.5-metres apart and observing physical distancing (several thousand feet in the air). https://www.timeout.com/sydney/thing...ac-day-flypast |

Excuse the bad photo. The forum wouldn't upload the screenshot so I took a photo of the screen. This is all the info I can find. Hope it helps!
