The Pacific Airshow Gold Coast was back and I was very lucky to spend the day using some pretty incredible gear. Across more than four hours of flying each day, crowds lined the beach as some of the finest aviators on the planet tore through the skies above the coastline. The lineup ran from RAAF power and precision, the F-35 Lightning II, the Roulettes and the C-130 Hercules, through to international demo teams, aerobatic legends and the surreal sight of Gravity Industries jet suits skimming the shore.
