Photographer’s remark
An Royal Air Force Victor 'Aerial Tanker' Aircraft overflies RAAF Laverton (with three English Electric Lightning F6 fighters following the Air-Air Refuelling drogues) during the RAAF's 50th Anniversary Air Display at Laverton in 1971. (Departure Aspect). The RAAF had to wait until 1990 to get AAR capability - on its ex-Qantas Boeing 707s. (Scan of 35mm slide).
