Taking place at Surfers Paradise from 14-16 August 2026, the event will feature flying displays from the RAAF as well as formation warbird and aerobatic displays, firefighting displays, and other attractions. The show is returning this year after its cancellation in 2025.
The high-performance single-engine, two-seater turboprop has been put up for sale by California aircraft seller Platinum Fighter Sales but is registered in Australia as VH-YMK and is being sold out of NSW.
Released by the Australian Transport Safety Bureau on Tuesday, the report found that during the aerobatics performance, the low nose altitude during a triple avalanche manoeuvre limited the aircraft’s capability to climb.
Australia’s largest regional airshow is expected to showcase three Spitfires soaring over the NSW coastline, a motorcycle backflipping over an aircraft and a Piper Cub landing on the back of a moving truck.
Scheduled for 23-28 February 2027, the event, run by the AMDA Foundation in collaboration with the Royal Australian Air Force, attracted more than 900 companies last year, as well as 291 official delegations from 43 countries.
The event will take place at Surfers Paradise from 14-16 August 2026, and follows extensive beach remediation efforts by Gold Coast Council to repair the massive erosion from the cyclone that scuppered its planned August 2025 dates.
