It's plane sailing for Canberra Airport Open Day despite big wet

A bit of rain won't stop the Canberra Airport Open Day from going ahead on Saturday. But with more than 30,000 tickets distributed, organisers will constantly monitor the sky throughout the event.

The biennial event is back on Saturday. The airport will team up with the ACT Emergency Services Agency, putting fire trucks and helicopters into the mix, along with aerobatic aircraft performances throughout the day, as well as static displays of everything from a zippy Sydney seaplane to hulking Lockheed Martin C-130J Super Hercules.
