TQ,

The fourth shot was taken at Normanton - last overnight stop on the ferry from Dili to Townsville.

XXX Your first photo is Mornington Island. As for the A/C and rego, I have no idea. I'm more used to that sight out of the front of Metros or Bandits.

linedriva, which photo are you referring to?? If you're referring to VH-XXX's photo on the previous page, that's not Mornington Island, .

Some good guesses but no-one (so far) is close. I'll give you a clue. It's in NSW.

Where is this?

To me it looks like the country around Bourke, the town should be on the right of the photo and the river is the Darling.

Close Horatio. Well said Capt Fathom. Tilpa it is.

The original pic was taken overhead the field on upwind. About to do a circuit over the pub, so the publican can chase the roos away..... Great spot for a drink with the locals and overnight. Not much else tho.....
