My tip on Victor 1 is enjoy it and keep a good look out. This is surely one of the must do flights for every pilot. If it doesn't leave you stoked, take up accountancy and lawn bowls.

Find time when transiting Nowra airspace to drop into the museum at Nowra Airport. I haven't done this myself but it is on the list for next time and has a great reputation. Take a rest at Wollongong before continuing up to Victor1.

For Williamtown, flying the lane needs no clearance and is a fun flight following a railway line at 1500' Keep right of the railway going either way. Look out! As for Willy Clearance delivery, this is a mixed bag. On principal I always ask for a direct clearance via overhead Willy and sometimes even get it. Once I was 1000' above FA18's doing circuits. Other times I am told to orbit at Nobbys then fly coastal at 500'
