    RAAF’s 90th Birthday The Royal Australian Air Force marked its 90th birthday with an annual commemorative service in Canberra and the addition of Battle Honours to the RAAF Memorial while there was a display of historic planes at the service's birthplace in Victoria. The Chief of Air Force, Air Marshal Mark Binskin AO used his address as an opportunity to re- member those that gave their lives in service to Australia over the last 90 years. The RAAF was formed on March 31, 1921, with Point Cook its sole base. "We have aeroplanes that date back to the 1930s," Air Commodore Ron Luke said at Point Cook. "When you look at the difference in technology between those aircraft and what we're operating today with Super Hornets and C-17 transports, it's really quite amazing”. The general public gathered to see the Roulette acrobat team perform and more than 60 aeroplanes, including Spitfires and Mustangs and Hudson bombers, 1930s vintage airliners, DC- 3s, plus an assortment of other aero- planes. While this was happening F/A-18 jets Air Marshal Mark Binskin AO lays a wreath at flew over Canberra, as people gathered the Canberra Ceremony at Anzac Parade to mark the anniver- sary. More squadrons have been formally added to the RAAF memorial, recognising those who served in the Philippines in 1944, the Malayan Peninsular and Ubon Thailand in the 1960s, and more recently East Timor and Iraq. Retired RAAF Squadron Leader Denis Macneall said he has fond memo- ries as a member of 75 Squadron in Malaysia.

  • 2012 Team Racing Sponsorship Proposal
    2012 Team Racing Sponsorship Proposal Speedway Sidecars is a motorcycle sport involving 4 teams consisting of a rider and a passenger competing over 4 laps on an oval shale track. Rules are governed by the national speedway federation and are not dissimilar to conventional speedway rules. Speedway Sidecars is most popular in Australia although in Great Britain it also has a strong following. Speedway sidecar events are also held in New Zealand, South Africa and United States of America. Because of the nature of the sports hotbeds being spread so wide across the globe, organising an official World Championship has been an arduous task, though in 2006 the first successful Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme or (FIM for short) World Track Racing Sidecar Championships (Sidecar Gold Cup) were held at Isle of Wight Speedway stadium. The event was screened live on Sky Sports. Racing speedway sidecars involves a rider and a passenger mounted on a 1000cc purpose built, three-wheeled sidecar outfit. The passenger of the machine is as much involved in the race performance as the rider. The two members of the sidecar team work in unison to ride the outfit as best they can. Speedway circuits are a loose shale surface and therefore traction is most important. The passenger plays a major part in controlling the amount of traction being created on the rear wheel. He does so by moving his weight forwards, backwards and sideways (either in to or out of the machine). The outfit only ever turns right so the passenger only finds himself on the right hand side of the outfit.

  • Mr Kym Bonython, AC
    Don Dunstan Foundation Oral History Project Record of interview Mr Kym Bonython, AC North Adelaide 2 July, 2008 Interviewed by Felicity Morgan Don Dunstan Foundation Oral History Project 00.00 This is Felicity Morgan interviewing Mr Kym Bonython, AC, on 2nd July, 2008 at his home in North Adelaide. This recording is being made for the Don Dunstan Foundation Oral History Project and will be deposited in the Flinders University Library, Don Dunstan Special Collection, and in the State Library of South Australia. Good morning Kym and thank you for taking the time to do this interview with me. This interview is about the Dunstan Decade in South Australia, roughly between the years 1968 and 1980, but perhaps before we start I should point out, for the record, you’re universally known as Kym but that’s not your given name. Would you just like to explain that little story? 00.46 (Chuckles) Well my real name is Hugh Reskymer Bonython. Reskymer is an old family name, in fact I’ve got a print of the original Reskymer, after whom I was named, only for some reason or other, he is …Kim. I don’t know why my mother called me…Kym, but I do know that Rudyard Kipling’s book Kim was popular about the time of my birth, and so that’s possibly a combination of ancestry and popular fiction. 01.30 And so you’ve been Kym ever since? Yes, I have 01.33 Excellent. Well that’s a good little story to start… I wouldn’t, I better not say what the Kym was changed to when I was in the RAAF during WW 2, except to say it started with the letter “F”! 01.42 (Chuckles) Okay, well maybe we won’t go into that.
