Once again Grant was on the commentary team for the Wings Over Illawarra airshow, working with Mark Bright and the Bright Events team to present Australia’s biggest annual air show. Grant was also assisting the show’s Air Boss with additional weather information, using access to weather models and contacts at the Bureau of Meteorology to help him restructure the Sunday flying display due to potentially bad weather. Fortunately the show was able to continue, albeit with the F-35 & wall of fire around the middle of the day, not at the end.
