F-35A Lightning II flypast and display for Territory Day

Territory Day is held annually on 01 July to commemorate the Northern Territory achieving self-government in 1978. To help commemorate this achievement, up to four Royal Australian Air Force F-35A Lightning II aircraft from No. 75 Squadron at RAAF Base Tindal will conduct a flypast and handling display over Mindil Beach Darwin.

Low level flying activities are conducted within strict safety and operational guidelines.

Flying is subject to change, including short notice cancellation, due to variables such as air traffic control requirements, weather, and operational availability.

Noise reduction and the environment are vital considerations in the planning and conduct of military flying. 

Further information about the F-35A Lightning II can be found on the F-35A Lightning II page.

Imagery of the F-35A Lightning II is available on the Defence Image Gallery.
