Ha! Yeah I have the feeling that I know you from somewhere then, cos our CP who had about 11,000 hours on 208s commented that it was a tired old engine (this was at the end of 2006)

Ceduna

Hello Warbo, it appears that you have not posted on the forums for several weeks. Why not take a few moments to ask a question, help provide a solution or just engage in a debate with other members in any one of the forums?

Happy to provide a solution to something...

First is West Beach (Adelaide)
Second is probably one of the Adelaide beaches
Third is Glenelg (Peter, I only recognised it 'cos I was there this Chrissie!)

^^ now that photo is cool!

Thanks Chadzat - unfortunately I was flying in all these instances and didnt take any of them. It was 2 different photographers with 3 different digital SLR's used for those selections - hence the differences in the quality of the photos.

I shall pass on the commendations on the photos though

All the other guesses for locations - spot on. I didnt think Ceduna on that angle would get picked so fast!

Mate, I was in a coach boat on Lake Karapiro when that (or one of the many just like it last week) came thru - went from glass calm to metre high waves in about 60 seconds - row boats going everywhere! Had to sit it out on the bank for about 45 mins. Was that the CB that dumped 6" of hail on the top of the Kaimais?

I checked the Wx out when I got home - tops at FL56...........

Nice to see you doing a good job of tracking the extended centerline at Ceduna, don't often see that in these days of sloppy flying training.
