Notes:

The RAAF's Second F-111C, A8-126 (operated by 1 Squadron), did the Finale 'Dump and Burn' at the 2008 Amberley Defence Airshow. (Note the 1 Squadron 'Lightning' Fin Flash). I didn't expect an Encore! The 'swing-wings' are swept forward at 26 degrees in this side view, at the moment the After-Burners ignited the first litres of dumped fuel. A8-126 performed the Actual 'Last Dump and Burn' during the 'Retirement' display at Amberley on 03Dec2010. (I first photographed a Dump and Burn at Amberley in 1976.)
