RVAC - Dawn Patrol - PILOT REGISTRATIONS NOW CLOSED
DAWN PATROL 2024
On Sunday, September 15th, 2024 the Royal Victorian Aero Club will commemorate the 84th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain with the 45th annual "Dawn Patrol" event. At first light, up to 30 aircraft of various types will depart Moorabbin Airport in formation, marking a route that includes significant landmarks such as the Shrine of Remembrance, Melbourne Arts Centre, Westgate Bridge, Point Cook Aerodrome, and Avalon Airport, before returning via Port Phillip Heads.
The "Dawn Patrol" was conceived in 1980 by Dr. Paul Matthews, a pilot and esteemed member of the Royal Victorian Aero Club, to honor fallen aviators. Since its inception, this event has grown into a cherished tradition, culminating in a memorial fly-past that pays homage to aviators who made the ultimate sacrifice in conflicts worldwide, timed to coincide with the Battle of Britain.
Following the fly-past, participants and guests will gather at the RVAC Clubrooms for a traditional cooked breakfast together with a guest speaker to share stories of their experiences.
The Royal Victorian Aero Club invites all members and guests to participate in this important event.
