As the owner has not been on site since 19th November 2009 and this one is confirmed by a cacher (who has found it previously) t0 be missing perhaps this one needs to be taken off line

Hadn't read the prior logs when I looked for this one today, and not surprisingly had no luck finding it. This one needs to be either fixed or archived. I hope fixed because it's a great spot that I wouldn't have known about if not for the cache.

I believe that this one is missing in action, we looked for this one the other day and could not see it, then yesterday we went back with a friend who has done it and they say also that it has gone, maybe the owner could check on this one for us please

What an interesting little park, with lots of history.
Had a couple of lots of other visitors while we searched, so had to pretend we were taking photos or just spotting plains.
We ended up coming back later in the day and still didn't find it, but had fun looking. TFTC

A nice park and like the title said plain and simple. Bit of history at the site under the plane. Was watched by an owl as I signed the log book and ate my lunch. T tk fazanten challenge coin.

Got a surprise to see this old bird out there. I have not long been posted to Oakey and didn't now about this spot. Nice stop for lunch. Thanks for the history lesson.

9/9 for this afternoon
Found at 111825KJAN09
Found on the way back from a Geo hunt that took us nearly 350km on a round trip from home to Blackbutt to the NE and then West through Yarraman to the Bunya Mountains. Then with an hour plus drive East to get back to home. Not a bad effort for a couple old farts on a Sunday afternoon drive…
I remember when this Canberra was first placed on the pole; a group of Army tradesman posted to the 5th Base Workshop Battalion from Oakey (An aircraft maintenance unit, now defunct and where I was working at the time) disassembled the aircraft and were given the task of placing the aircraft on the post. Whist I was not part of the team I do remember on of the tradies (Bill Cannon??) nearly severed his finger when the tail section accidently swung into place much easier than anyone anticipated.
Mr Happy is still standing guard near the cache and No, he won’t fit in the cache container will he.
Dropped off Watershed Geocoin

Big Grin Found at 2.15pm today in the rain. GPS took me to the vicinty close to the GZ. Did not need the GPS to pinpoint the GZ. Wheely easy to find. TNLN TFTC
 
22-May-08
Very easy find, did not even use the GPS. Quite open hiding spot, could be muggled easy but lets hope that does not happen. Called in while on a dirt bike round trip to Goombungee and back for a days ride on all the dirt roads.Nice excuse to have a pit stop.
TFTC, TNLN

Found at 1600hrs after a very pleasant drive through the countryside. Had a bit of a chuckle about the entry on the 8/4/08 it says, "found by the Plumbers who came to fix the toilet, cheers." Always nice to see a non cacher leave it as it was found.

Found it! Like my predecessors, I must say that it is a real pity that the plaques are missing - the history behind this object would be most interesting....

Took koala keyring - left Case machinery hat badge and ladybug.

TFTC - a great cache.

Found with lochb and Steve and Family Find 10 of 17 today

I used to go to dances out here 25 or so years ago.

Sadly the plaques are missing from this site. But nice to see the old girl looking so well!!

Nice bit of history around here, complete with an old "jungle gym" the like of which I would have played on when a little whipper-snapper.

Found in the company of Steve&Family and Rastas. Impressive plane. TFTC

Found this one in the company of Rastas and Lochb today. We quickly found the cache safe and in good condition. We took a ball and left a koala keyring. Then Steve and Rastas had great fun studying the plane for a while before we headed off for the next cache.

Thanks for the cache!

Found this cache happy and well, in its hidey hole. Left a bouncy ball and took the geocoin. This display is in a lot better condition than the one near Amberley, west of Brisbane. Always good to see a bit of history preserved.
 
03-Mar-07
Great hiding! Easy find. Everlasting and I really enjoyed the nice and peaceful drive heading back to Toowoomba then home in Brisbane. Thanks to ARH Tiger.

love these ones ... what the hell is this thing doing here ... just brilliant ... TN but had to leave something - a geocaching cloth patch ... thanks Big Grin

just wished that the plaques were still there to inform those who come out to have a look Twisted

Found easily. Enjoyed the look around GZ, actually spent about 15mins there. Strange some of the things you find out in the middle of no where.

Easy find given the clues. Container still in its spot. Must have been raided as there was a note (removed) from a Matthew (??) calling us nasty names. Only a wristband and pin in container. At least Matthew put it back.

Tks for the drive.

Cheers

Our 6th find on our day out west. Found very easily at 11.15am as it was sitting upright in the middle of a piece of concrete on the ground under the structure. Muggles here must be very considerate.

We logged our find and hid the cache in a place consistent with the hint - but we would recommend a maintenance run to check it's location - as it may become dislodged.

We are enjoying a pleasant drive in the country visiting places we would not otherwise see. Thanks for the cache.
 
04-Nov-06
We found this cache with very little trouble. It was in plane sight.
Yes...lying on the ground in front of us. We tried our best to restore it to its former location but are afraid that the wind may dislodge it a second time. Urgently recommend that a piece of wire be employed to restrain it.
We didn't know about this park or its attractions, so many thanks ARHTiger for bringing it to our attention.
TN L bracelet.
