The Royal New Zealand Air Force (RNZAF) is likely to take part in a Skyhawk exercise in Australia today.
The RNZAF's participation was under review after the death of senior pilot Squadron Leader Murray Neilson, 37, of Wellington, last Friday.
Squadron Leader Neilson was killed when his jet crashed during exercises near Nowra, on New South Wales' south coast on Friday.
Saturday's sessions of the airshow - from which New Zealand's Nowra-based Skyhawks withdrew - were dedicated to the dead pilot.
