RAAF Museum tour - point cook

Join us on a journey through the ages. Hear the stories of our people surrounded by the aircraft they supported and flew. Learn about the beginnings in the Australian Flying Corps, the courage of our Second World War aviators, and the service of thousands of men and women to our nation at home and abroad in times of peace and war.
There may be a flying display by the Air Force Heritage Aircraft Fleet on the day too (schedule not yet set).
As we have to enter as a group we will meet at 9:30 am for a 10:15 am departure at the 100 Steps of Federation, the highest point of land between Melbourne and the You Yangs. An easy climb up the stone steps (about a 300 metre walk, sloped path alternative) leading up to the summit with 360 degree views and the huge sculpture called the Time Beacon, created by artist Cameron Robbins.

You can capture stunning images of the city in the distance over the green hills and wetlands, and the salt flats to the west, weather permitting.
After the tour join us for lunch at 1.00pm at the Phoenix Hotel 40 Wallace Ave, Point Cook VIC 3030.
