Gooday Girly,

Have you got a date with Tonym3 down there? Does hubby know about this

Seriously though pack ya woolies, yesterdays Retard Vehicle OAT report was -12 degrees C at 10,000' and the wind blown ocean swells looked arctic even from the comfort of a warm cabin.

Have fun and post plenty of pics

Fly as high as you can, WEAR your life jacket, if VFR do a sched with ATC (refer ERSA) and launch off the coast at Wilsons prom, and there are a few islands along the way. Quite pretty really.

Did I mention its cold down there, kind of like your homeland.

Flying up the Tamar River into Launie would be nice, I never had the chance to do it, but the bit I saw makes me think it would be nice at 1000AGL. If you get to Strahan that is a beautiful spot but watch weather as over on the west coast its a bit more remote than it looks on a map .

Depends on the time and budget you have available, I know we will be back again.

You could blow your entire budget in one night here Saffire | Home

Report from Capt Chris was this is 7 star,
