Description
A Moving cache participating the the cachinggames.com BINGO game. The more you move, the better your chances of winning.
The BAE Systems Hawk is a British single-engine, advanced jet trainer aircraft. It first flew in 1974 as the Hawker Siddeley Hawk, and is used by the Australian Air Force. It has been used in a training capacity and as a low-cost combat aircraft.
You are looking for a soft-rubber model of the BAE Hawk with a built-in log book.
Be careful not to break the "hinge" on the log cover.

This geocache appears to be MIA so stop it clogging of the search lists we'll archive this one. If the owner can confirm it is in place the listing can be resurrected by placing an "unarchived" log against it.
In the hands of a local cacher now for 3.5 years.....probalby long enough to wait for it be to be relocated.
With the current May-tenance month underway to clean up our database, this one should probably be archived

NO LONGER AT THESE CO ORDINATES BUT IN THE HAND OF A LOCAL CACHER.
This one and his friends have been handed over to a local cacher as some of them are unique and can not be just left in the bush. About time I found a spot to hide this one and I decided that I had better get a move on and as I had three to hide closer to civilisation for the 2013/2014 moveable Cache race today was the day.

Will Move this one on soon.
Found very close to home with the assistance of some very friendly ACT cachers. Do not get to find too many of this type of cache as not that many are hidden or come to my part of Queensland. Thanks for the novel cache (moveable)

I've been missing out on a few moveable's lately so I put a watch on a few so I could know as soon as they were put back out. Tonight I managed to pick up 4, of which this was one.
Moved in with a gc.com cache - nicely tucked away from prying eyes. Safe travels...
After logging a few caches a little closer to home, I discovered there was another stash quite close by, so an early morning stroll soon had this one in hand. Will move along soon. TFTC.
Moved this on where someone will find it very soon I think. Thanks.
A great little aeroplane. Delivery to our door today made it a very easy find, thanks steptoe!
Oh well I'm pickin' 'em up and I'm laying 'em down
I believe they're gone ain't nowhere around
I search to the left I look to the right
I wanna leave them but it wouldn't be right
Down and gawn already.

Spotted this one (after missing it on our visit to his last hidey hole) while being transported to another local who will re-locate shortly.
Thanks for the continued fun of the moveables.

With Black Bunny in the mountains, rounding up gnaughty gnomes. It was very windy and consequently fairly cool, but fun!

Found on a third day forage within the Gnomelands ... fearful of retribution from the Disenchanted Gnomes, taken in hand only for a photo op. A little gritty from the overnight rain, but all is well. TFTC

BAE Hawk has joined with a group of disenchanted Gnomes in the occupation of this tract of land, the aim being to secede from Australia and create their own independent country.
However with Gnomes in charge this may turn into a dictatorship, it remains to see if emmigration is greater than immigration.

BAE Hawk has joined a mass exodus of moveables led by renegade Gnomes, who knows what they plan to do? They are all in hiding for now while hatching their nefarious plans. No point looking for any of them they are nowhere to be found until they are ready to reveal their ultimate goal.

It's resting in the cemetery, maybe the owner wants it back.
This was thrust into my hand at the Geotrek 2013 event. Too busy talking I didn't even see who it was.
Left at the ZFPT - Manly Dam Walk & Talk Event.
I had 7 minutes between parking & my train leaving, so time to find a few moveables on my way to work.
Bae Hawk has stopped here has he did not want to go back all the way to Sydney just yet.
BAE Hawk has found a way to get to Clwydd, but he will not have time to enjoy the scenery around here he is bound for Sydney.

All 8 of the Belrose hostages have found sanctuary in Normanhurst. They probably won't stay for long.
Rescued on a mercy dash to retrieve 8 poor movables from the GCA-hostile desert to the east.
Moved off the road, down a little driveway, just in the bush with 5 other friends.
Founda bunch of friends and decided to move them along.

This and a few others I had have yet to be found by some of the northern Sydney bingo players, so off to the local dropzone.
BAE Hawk has found a new spot to have a rest and is waiting to be found.
BAE Hawk has made his way up the mountains to Clwydd, he will now get moving again, no rest for the wicked!

BAE Hawk is on the move and has selected this spot to meet the local Bingo Nutter.
Don't bother looking, long gone I am sure.

Got you, no escape you are going for a trip up the mountains, but not for long you will be back in Sydney before you know it.

Dropped near the station ready for a trip!
BAE Hawk came with us today but decided to stay here in the car as there was no decent landing strip where we planned to go
I love these squishy things, very good for stress relief
