Southern Cross replica Visit
Sunday 22 March – The Southern Cross, which is the replica of Kingsford Smith’s plane from the 1930s, will visit Moruya for refueling, on its way back from Cooma to Wollongong HARS Museum, (Historical Aircraft Restoration Society) an Australian volunteer organisation and museum located at Shellharbour Airport
The plane has been to a memorial for the 95th anniversary of its sister aircraft Southern Cloud that crashed in the Snowy Mountains in 1930.
As a result of that crash, it became compulsory for passenger aircraft to have a radio. It will land at Moruya and taxi up to the fuel bowser near the terminal about 10am on Sunday.
