Geocache Description:


The cache is not located at the above co-ordinates.

This cache is dedicated to my Mother who passed away in 2005.
A year or so before she passed away, I took her to a model War Birds show on the Sunshine Coast. Much to my surprise, Mum sat there identifying the models as they flew past. She then told me that in 1945 at the age of 17, she was presented with a certificate of appreciation by the Royal Australian Air Force for serving as a volunteer in the
Air Observers Corps.
The observers' job was to identify any aircraft and record colour, make, markings, speed, direction and time of sighting. With the network of observers, the Air force could track movements of their aircraft and help locate planes that didn't return to their base.

So this cache will allow you to become an Air Observer as well. To find the missing numbers, you'll have to identify the planes from the silhouette plates in the photo gallery.
