Special Dietary Requirements: If you or your partner have any special requirements, please advise accordingly.

Dress: The usual suggested dress for gentlemen is jacket and tie (Association tie and lapel badge), and for the ladies after-five wear. However, as we are touring several hangar areas, comfortable casual may be more appropriate; you decide.

Cost:                                                MSA members and partners        $75 per head ($150/couple)

Accommodation: There many possibilities available. The following links may be of assistance. Book sooner rather than later to avoid disappointment

www.homeaway.com.au Shellharbour When you open this site, type in Shellharbour NSW Australia and you will see many different options

https://www.airbnb.com.au Shellharbour There are approximately 35 airbnb opportunities.

Transport: Because of the diversity of accommodation locations, transport to and from HARS must be your indivdual responsibility.

Please note that all payments are required by no later than Friday 31 August 2018. Any cancellations up to that date will receive a refund. However, after that date, I will not be able to refund the full amount as HARS requires payment in advance for the food costs.

Finally, some information on the Orion End of an Era Functions at RAAF Edinburgh

Function Dates Confirmed

30 Nov - 01 Dec 2018

Due to operational requirements we have adjusted the dates and it will now be the weekend 30 Nov - 01 Dec 2018. These dates are confirmed and planning is about to begin shortly to make them happen.
As always if you need any more details or would like to contribute in some way please contact us via email at 50yearsofp3.orion@defence.gov.au

The Celebration of the end of P3 operations (well almost) will be held on
the 30th of Nov and the 1st of Dec 2018. The Friday activity will be an
evening hangar function on RAAF Base Edinburgh. There is also a family day planned for the Friday or Saturday but not sure what that will entail. I am hoping that there will be a P8 open for inspection and a AP3 also available for people to walk through and remember. The official function is planned to be held in the Adelaide Convention Centre on the 1st of December. The SQN is aware of cost issues etc and is looking at having the function at the Convention Centre as a buffet style event. I will be chatting with the function organiser later this week and will hopefully have some more information regarding format, dress and cost.

Also be advised that the SQN will still be operational up to and probably
following the event so I will try and provide a conduit for MSA members,
both via email and on Facebook.
