Fantastic, thanks for posting.

Fantastic post from what was a wonderful day.
Did you attend "The Last Great Canberra Party" (a much smaller affair) at Marham 21 - 23 June 1996 ? Would love to see some photos from that.

What a stunning set of images, great memories.
I must admit, both 360 and 39 Sqns were always the head-turners for me.
I love the line shot with all the codings applied, - reminds me of the end of the JP 3/3a Line at Scampton before we finalised to the Tucano, we had 3 frames left for spinning currency, and they were always parked on the slot in the correct designate message order...

Hello,

Going through my father's things and I thought I'd research this bottle linked below. The Last Great Canberra Party, attended by my father Eddie Patterson (Pat)
