Avalon Airshow report

Just back from the Airshow at Avalon Airport, Melbourne. For my first visit to the show I was certainly kept busier than expected.

Our work was represented by Air Affairs, Cybertechnologies, DSTO, Entecho and UAV Vision.
Air Affairs had their Phoenix Target drone on display.

Cybertechnologies had a full stand with cybereye 2 & cybird 5 (#3) fully assembled.
DSTO had Cybird 5 (#2) on display with their 'Bioseeker' hardware installed in the nosecone under a clear hatch for all to see.


Entecho were showing 2 'Mupod' hovering micro UAV's and UAV Vision had their suite of cameras on show

For us it was good to see our work getting out there as well as having a look at what the competition are up to. The usual suspects were there Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Northrop etc. but the coup was Cybertechnologies trumping them all to win best stand at the show!

Now its all over, the dust will settle and we will see what comes of all those meetings, I can say though that I had a great time and I look forward to attending the next show.
