I want to say it's a B52 that someone built a replica of,  impressive as well... and then crashed it... ouch....


That's an impressive airplane.   I've seen some that are so realistic it's scary.   Some of the real serious guys have working hard points and bomb bays.

Hey, I LIKE Fosters....'course I like Corona too, so draw your own conclusions...(I hate Tequila BTW)

I also like "Waltzin Matilda"....have since I watched a movie about yacht racing called "wind" (I think that was the name)

BTW, I've gotten along with every Aussie I've ever met.  Aussies and Alaskan's got a LOT in common.  Must be the mindset. Actually every Aussie I've ever met has been an absolute HOOT to hang out with.  Probably helps I know the difference between an Aussie and a Kiwi and why it's a darn good idea to NEVER, EVER mix that up.

Besides, every Aussie I have met has more inventive uses for the "F" word then I do.  And I can involve camels when sufficently upset!

Not officially, it is to my knowledge however a song that's close to the heart of many australians, like Edelweis to austrians (as played in The Sound of Music).

G'day,

Advance Australia Fair is the national anthem, and yes Frank it is like Edelweis....just more annoying  ::whistle:: ::whistle::

Just for the trivia buffs, it was written as a poem and them the melody was added later

Australians are still suspicious of authority, and cynical about the pomposity and hypocrisy of the judicial and police systems.

If Australians are so suspicious of authority.... why did they ban firearms and leave themselves relying on authority for defense from criminals?
