If you're in Melbourne and have time I highly recommend a visit to the RAAF Museum. It's only open Thursdays and Sundays. Admission is free. It's also on an active military base so you have to fill out a forum and submit it online a few days beforehand. Then they email your pass.

They also fly some interesting historical aircraft. I managed to catch a P-51D up close and personal. The sounds of that Merlin engine never gets old.
