Re: RAAF Noteworthy Movements
Whoever was on 126.2 this morning sounded like they were enjoying themselves, practising aerobatics or similar.

Saw three red and white RAAF turbo props (I think) flying in formation over Swanbourne yesterday.

Saw this one too in Wangara. It over flew Waneroo Road/Hepburn Ave heading towards the airport, looked impressive...

Re: RAAF Noteworthy Movements
Sounds like the Roulettes are in town for the RBAR and are practising on 136.2.

Re: RAAF Noteworthy Movements
Didn't hear any callsigns, but the only users I've previously heard on 136.2 have been the Roulettes.
Plus the use of the 'go' instruction was very Roulettes-esque.

"go" is used by all military formations to initiate a command (sorry to be picky)Steve wrote:Plus the use of the 'go' instruction was very Roulettes-esque.

Re: RAAF Noteworthy Movements
I was going by the use of 136.2 - the only users of that frequency I've heard in 20+ years of milair scanning is the Roulettes.
126.2 is commonly used by RAAF over here.
As I always say on this forum, I'm happy to stand corrected.
