2026 AIRMAN AIRCREW REUNION .... IP: 58.104.165.211 Posted on 3/2/2026 at 09:42:36 AM by Lance Haslewood
2026 AIRMAN AIRCREW REUNION ....
Friday and Saturday 23-24 October.
C.ex Coffs.
2-6 Vernon Street.
COFFS HARBOUR. NSW. 2450.
The year is fast rolling on, and with just eight-and-a-bit months to go, the 2026 Airman Aircrew Reunion is going to be on top of us before we realise it.
'Airman Aircrew Reunion' is by name only, meaning that the event is open to anyone irrespective of category or mustering. Similarly, non-service friends and acquaintances are also most welcome to attend.
The event is being held in Coffs Harbour which is an ideal location and midway between Brisbane and Sydney, which hopefully, will attract a solid attendance.
Allan Harris (LOADM) has been busy organising the reunion. He has seconded AIRCDRE Jack Fanderlinden AM, CSC, AFC Ret′d as guest speaker. Jack has accrued over 8,500 hours and he has captained many aircraft types including rotary wing, single jet and multi-engine aircraft. I am sure Jack will have some interesting tales to tell.
Details of the Reunion may be found on the Airman Aircrew Website along with, inter alia, the registration form and costings. To aid in planning, it is important that we get the registration forms in as soon as possible.
Accommodation options including caravan parks are available on the AA website.
Questions or queries; please give Al Harris a call on 0412 608 817 or email at airman.aircrew.reunion.2026@airmanaircrew.com.au.
