The two largest aircraft at the tattoo must have been the two Boeing C-17A Globemaster III's from the RAAF and the USAF.
The first photo is of the RAAF aircraft, registration A41-212, which was on static display and open to the public. It's a huge space inside! You'll notice the lack of people around it when I took the photo - that's an advantage of turning up early - small queues and less people to get in the way of the photos :-)

The USAF also sent a C-17A along and it was this aircraft which performed a couple of display routines during the day. It's an awesome sight to see an aircraft this size being thrown around like it was. What surprised me the most however was that is was fairly quite. Modern engines help a lot!
Here are a few photos from the displays. Display aircraft was 05-5146.

I agree with your point that these are the largest aircraft and enormous space inside these and insufficiency people around it which lead to “you can see and take pictures of aircrafts with easy and no anxious way.”
