  • Happy New Year! HARS Aviation Museum Wishes All Our Subscribers a Safe and Prosperous New Year
    Happy New Year! HARS Aviation Museum wishes all our subscribers a safe and prosperous new year. This new year promises to be an exciting one for us at HARS as our visitor base continues to grow along with our collection of aircraft. There are many projects of significance which are expected to unfold during this year including: • the return to airworthy status of our de Havilland T.35 Vampire, Fokker F27-500 Friendship, Bell UH-1 Iroquois Helicopter (one of the aircraft acquired as part of the RAN Historic Flight) and the Fokker F.VIIb/3m Southern Cross. • addition to static display collection of the de Havilland FAW Mk 53 Sea Venom, Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21 and a DAP Mk 21 Beaufighter. We are constantly being offered additional aircraft so this list is likely to expand. • continuing work to return to Australia John Travolta’s Boeing 707-138. This is proving to be a significant challenge, but perseverance will prevail! It is also anticipated there will be a continuation of the tempo of flying operations which ramped up in the second half of 2019 with many of our flying operations in the advanced stage of planning. 2019, the year that was… 2019 was a very busy year for HARS. Some of the significant events that occurred during the year include successful participation in Wings Over Illawarra, a visit to Shellharbour Airport of a French Marine Falcon (based in Tahiti), attendance by four HARS aircraft at the RAAF Edinburgh Air Show and, of course, a visit by Mr John Travolta. Our Lockheed Super Constellation was awarded an Engineering Heritage Marker by the Institute of Engineers of Australia, recognising the efforts of HARS and our sponsors in restoring and continuing to fly the aircraft.
