Performances for aviation ‘legends’ LEGENDS of the SKIES theatre is perorming a series of short plays highlighting the roles of Australian legends of aviation. The not-for-profit community theatre gives audiences a “tasting platter” of stories of adventure, heroism, courage in adversity, and visionary people whose legacies have affected our lives. Artistic director Maggie Morrison says the nine 10-minute stories are delivered with music, fun, drama and participation, as the audience is moved around the “theatre” to different backdrops enhanced by planes and placards. The performances are at the National Australian Aviation Museum, 16 First St, Moorabbin “with many in the audience not even knowing that this little gem exists on our doorstep”, Ms Morrison said. The event marks the anniversary of the Commonwealth Aircraft Corporation which was instrumental in Australia’s defence during World War II. It also has a display in the museum which is open 10am-4pm weekdays and 10am-5pm weekends. The shows are at 8pm, Thursday 27 to Saturday 29 April and Thursday 4 May to Saturday 6 May.

Charges follow threats to ‘kill’ PSO AN Aspendale man who allegedly threatened to kill a Protective Services Officer has been remanded in custody. The 42-year-old has also been charged with stalking, possessing ammunition as well as a dangerous article, breaching bail, and committing an indictable offence while on bail. The PSOs said they first spoke to
the man when they allegedly saw him drinking alcohol at the entrance to Mordialloc railway station, 8pm, Sunday 19 March. They said he was “immediately abusive”, especially to one particular PSO, and threatened “to kill” him. The PSO, who has had many dealings with the man, told police he be-
lieves the man is capable of carrying out his threat. On Wednesday 5 April, the PSO and a colleague arrested the man over outstanding warrants, when he repeated his threat to kill the same PSO. Police claim that between 19 March and 5 April the man “on numerous occasions” visited railway stations be-

tween Mordialloc and Frankston asking the whereabouts of the PSO. They say he screamed abuse at PSOs stating he would “get” the PSO he was seeking. Police say it appears the man had been “staking out locations” of the PSO’s whereabouts. At 7pm, Tuesday 11 April, PSOs arrested the man at Mordialloc sta-
tion over an outstanding warrant. A search of the man’s clothing allegedly unearthed two rounds of ammunition and an ammunition cartridge. A sharpened centre punch adapted for use as a weapon was found after a remand hearing and extra charges added. The man will appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday 4 May.
