J430,

Thanks for the photos, sends a bit of a shiver down the spine thinking about all those hours spent up there looking down thinking "Where the fark would I put this thing right now if it went?". The area to the South East of Kalumburu always got me thinking.

The other question you would often ask yourself is "gear up or down?" Seems like gear up was a good call in this case, although it limits directional stability once you're on the ground but the pros generally outweigh the cons.

Quite amazing really, the young girl giving the thumbs up and a big smile from them all. Good work from the pilot!!!
