Going through some pic’s the taken back in 2013, I see from their Web site the Point Cook
Museum is closed until June 2022 as they are improving inferstructure visitor access and
installing new exhibits, great museum with a large diverse collection.

Farman
Avro 504

Avro Cadet
Boomerang
Wingless, rudderless but fully restored Catalina A24-104

Be interested to hear if anyone knows was the conversion to the strafer nose a
field mod and did they just paint over the perspex?
A28-8 flown by FL Bill Newton the only RAAF airman awarded a VC in the SWPA.

Fantastic photos of a place I'm very excited to visit (and so many other museums and sites of interest nearby)!

Thanks oz rb fan, would have been a job and a half making up all those rounded
panels, not to mention mounting all the .50s! Here's the rest of my set from Point
Cook, great museum with a large diverse collection.
Gypsy engine tester
The Walrus a true machine of intrigue, seems hard to believe she was designed
by the same chap who came up with the Spitfire.
These pic’s were taken a while back, be interesting to see how the Mosi is
progressing?
They made sure the Winjeel was easy to work on with the hinged cowling.
CT4
Aermacchi and Vampire
Vampire
Canberra
Mirage
Phantom
F111
