Indeed. I live about five miles from the Amberley RAAF base, home of the F-111 strike force, and let me tell you they are still an impressive bird to watch in the sky.

They've been busy of late, too - today, target practice for some, and aerial reconnaisance of the cyclone-ravaged parts of northern Queensland where Cyclone Larry hit on Monday.

Watching them zoom overhead this evening, on their way back to base, was impressive as always.
