Fighter World Museum Newcastle-Williamtown~NSW 27th February 2023 (John Tomlinson)

By John TomlinsonForeign Airfield Visit

Now in Sydney, today was a visit to the dual civil and military airport at Newcastle-Williamtown~NSW

The morning was spent viewing the civil and military movements. However after a few hours we visited Fighter World Museum, which is next to the airfield and close to one of the public viewing area where we had been all morning.

A bit of a chat and we were taken into the restoration area and hangar for a full and informative tour.
