In September 1943, around 60,000 war-weary Melbournians gathered to enjoy a morale-boosting display of RAAF aerial manoeuvres, but ended up witnessing the tragedy of the Second World War first hand.
The North Melbourne air crash occurred just a few hundred metres from where the National Archives’ Victoria office is now located.
Discover this fascinating wartime story through records from the National Archives and Public Record Office Victoria collections. Presented in conjunction with the Hotham History Project.
