F/A-18F Super Hornet to conduct display overhead Amberley

During the flying activity, the F/A-18F Super Hornet aircraft will fly as low as 60 metres above the ground and reach speeds of up to 1,000 kilometres per hour over the Base.

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.
