With its international rollout on April 9 before an audience of over 100,000 people, the Boeing 777 is fast becoming a reality as an aircraft programme with the assembly line beginning to quickly fill with the first of ten aircraft in varying stages of completion. Shown here are aircraft 001 and 002, note the Australian content via the ASTA built rudders and the HdH built elevators. An in-depth Update on the 777 programme will appear in our June edition, Don't miss it. (Boeing)

Lion Over Korea:
David Wilson This book presents the most complete story so far of 77 Squadron’s period of service in the Korean War between 1950 and 1953. Written by RAAF Historical Section chief David Wilson, it won third prize in the 1993 RAAF Heritage Awards.
Lion Over Korea follows the usual procedure by telling the operational story of the squadron’s Korean activities, supported by extensive reminiscences from some of the leading personalities involved.
