Thanks for the heads up Mike. Now I've got an extra reason to visit the family in Newcastle.

You will find the week after the airshow the Vipers will be here for two weeks, a week after that the F-15's will be here.
What is noteworthy is that a WASP class carrier is apparently meant to be stationed in Darwin due to the Marines deployment to the northend during the time of the airshow, so there are rumors that aircraft will be attending that are from that carrier.

Now that is just rumors at this stage regarding the Marines, the F-22's are meant to be coming back and this time with a demo team. RAF are sending there A330 MRTT- Voyager, JASDF is sending there KC-767.

Wether the Vipers are sent to the Airshow or not remains to be seen, put it this way a lot has been promised before but due to other commitments or ops they haven't showed....

Can confirm Alaskan F-16's will be at Avalon and F-22's also will attending, this time they will be putting on a flying demo.
Also very interesting is a predator (not a mock up) will give a demonstration
