The Grail

The Grail subject for ScaleACT-26 is: 

"Aviation in Canberra”

You may enter a model of any aircraft or helicopter, civilian or military, that has operated from Canberra Airport (built up from an old airstrip that was first laid down in the 1920s) and/or RAAF Base/Defence Establishment Fairbairn (established 1940).

Special mention goes to the aircraft of No.34 Sqn, the RAAF VIP transport squadron.

Also eligible are any known and specific aircraft or helicopters that have visited or been temporarily based at Canberra (think Air Force One, Antonov AN-124 and water bombers to name but a few!). To whet your appetite, here’s a link to illustrate some of our interesting visitors.
