The Ohakea hangar had been transformed into a large cinema for the charity premier. Special guests at the screening, to raise funds for the air force museum at Wigram, were the Gover-nor-General, Sir David

Beattie, and his wife, Lady Beatie, the chief of air staff, Air Vice Marshal David Crooks and Mrs Crooks, and Air Vice Marshal Dick Bolt, chairman of 'the museum trust. The heated hangar was divided into two sections with comfortable seating set up in front of the 10 metre-wide screen and the rear set up for a buffet supper. One of the air force’s new Skyhawks, which arrived X at Ohakea on Thursday, was on display in the hangar. . The aircraft was one of

four Royal Australian Navy Skyhawks to arrive last week. The six remaining Skyhawks will arrive later this month. . ..
