The coolest thing about race week were the number of fly overs that we got to see. One of our favourites was the F18, although it was unbelievably loud. The planes would fly straight down our street and turn around right past our building. The kids would race around the apartment watching them turn around and then run out to the balcony to watch them head back up the street.
These aeroplanes practiced their formations for a few weeks before the race.
A huge (literally) highlight was seeing this Qantas 747 fly right past our place. It is a massive aeroplane and it was crazy to see it so close.

I love flyby's. I miss those from Drew's air force days. They are so cool to see. We saw some military planes fly by this weekend over the ocean. Drew would remember the name of the plane. B52 or f15?... Yep, you can laugh at me, I don't remember specifics.
