So that the organisers can allocate sufficient parking spaces for LCQ exhibitors, please provide an indication if you plan attend by Friday 5 July to Alan Kenn kennag@bigpond.com. There will be points on offer for the Interclub Challenge Show-n-shine. Exhibitors should be able to arrive and exit the event when needed. 

The event is to be held on the grass cross strip (closed for the day) at Caboolture Airport which is at the end of Aerodrome Road, Caboolture (use exit 152A towards Bribie Island, take the first turn left once over the M1 overpass to Aerodrome road and follow the signs).

 In addition to the usual comprehensive classic car displays, there is the additional attraction of viewing classic aircraft and warbirds that will be parked adjacent to the car display. Approximately twenty WW2 and early 1950 aircraft are expected ranging from Tiger Moth, Chipmunk, Stearman, Harvard/SNJ to a T28 Trojan. A display of working radial engines is also planned.

The Australian Aviation Heritage Centre is also located at Caboolture Aerodrome and visitors will be able to view their aircraft and restoration facilities at a modest entry fee. The most notable of their exhibits is the large ex RAAF Caribou as well as Vietnam era RAAF Huey helicopter as well as many other historic exhibits.
