McRobertson race
To celebrate the fact that 75 years ago the famous McRobertson race from London to Australia was held, the Aviodrome Theme Park Museum had organized in the weekend of 4-5 July (2009) a Fly-in of aircraft from that period. Aviodrome tried to get as many aircraft types as possible to this event that had participated in this race. Type present were Douglas DC-2, De Havilland Dragon, De Havilland Puss Moth and Miles Falcon. Aviodrome also showed on the platform a few aircraft types that are normally kept inside: a Fokker F.II replica, a Cierva C.30, the Fokker Spin and the Lambach HL-2.
Further, demonstrations with a working rotary engine and limited flight displays were given.
