Rolls Royce thunder from down under
 
Hi guys I thought I'd share this little clip I found for any fans of BOP in Australia (and fans in general) or anyone who's contemplating a trip to our wonderful country and has an interest in aviation history. While it doesn't stack up to what our EU friends have I must say it's a good start.

Nice to see that the legend will live on and the next generation will learn the sacrifices that were made by all waring nations. I'm planning a trip to check these beauties out over the xmas break, super stoked and can't wait to hear that beastie V12 to fire up! :grin:

Oh here is a link to the museum and the operating aircraft, not a bad private collection!

Thank you for sharing Ben :-)

Got a (rather sad) new fact; The wirraway shot down one(!) japanese fighter during the war. Poor guys that was set up with the odd little bird! Brave lads...
