It was a sunny winter’s day as we headed off fro m Munno Para. It was funny to see the car temperature gauge showing 9 degrees, as it was on 39 degrees last time we tried this outing!!

An enjoyable drive past rolling green hills and the beginnings of the yellow canola fields until we turned off the Kapunda road and arrived at Lincoln’s wonderful ‘overgrown hobby’ shed – a museum to be proud of! His small models numbered over 1200, and h is large exhibits, pieces garnered from all over Australia, survivors and rebuilds from wars gone by, amazed even the non - aviation enthusiasts amongst us!

We marvelled at the conditions our forebears went through defending our country with such basic mach ines. We had a yummy BBQ lunch, we listened to a unique truck engi ne start up, and waited patiently for another engine which refused to co-operate, and then headed off to Tanunda for more pleasant socialising over milkshakes for afternoon tea. Thanks to al l who joined us on a fabulous day out; for the 21 of us it was certainly a cruise to remember!!
