Hi J430,
Shots are from a flight down to Key West (KEYW) in Florida..
Did a US trip in a 152 in July, ended up flying from Orlando, down to Keywest, Up through Atlanta, Illinois to Minnesota - then across to Michigan, - back down to Peoria, Illinois, then to Akron, Ohio, to Niagra Falls, then back to Orlando via Greensboro.. Was about 54 hours in 9 days :} , but am already getting withdrawl symptoms again :sad:
A good link that you can see where we went is at: US Trip - Great Circle

Can I guess
 
That looks like a moth over D'bay just west of YRED.

Or am I mistaken?

Unfortunately you are, not far off though, about 100nm. Hervey Bay.

J430 24th Sep 2006 06:07

No short walk either
 
Hervey Bay!

Was there just recenty, lovely place. Droped in for the evening hoping to get Col C to buy me a beer....sneeky bugger went to South Oz.

Pic's above came the next day flying down around here!

Love the Bay!

Did have one in the hangar near his.....was that your beer I enjoyed?

Anyone able to guess the name of this WA town?

J430 24th Sep 2006 07:00

Somewhere in WA
 
No idea, but I know whose plane you took the photo in.:E A C310 perhaps?

J:ok:

low_flyer 24th Sep 2006 07:28

The other KAL?
 
TQ,

Despite the fact you're in a Goldfields aircraft, would that be the other "Kal" - Kalbarri?

Towering Q 24th Sep 2006 08:25

You would be correct.:ok: That's the mouth of the Murchison coming into view.

Unfortunately we don't get to see the ocean very often.:sad:

Towering Q 24th Sep 2006 08:31

J430...a C310 indeed.

But....it could have been a 402B, or a C340!

J430 24th Sep 2006 08:53

Eye like a hawk
 
Well if you know your stuff its a C310.

Me...I just have seen a couple and it looked about right. The rest was all ar$e and a littlest it of class.:E

J:ok:

gaunty 24th Sep 2006 11:11

I'm sure a psychologist would be able to explain it, but the GAS thing put me right off trying to think what was on the South coast that being the more likely destination.

Kalbarri did pop into my head but it didn't "fit" my "preconception":ugh: :ugh: .

Been going there since 1959 (as a kid in our family Austin A70) when the road was a goat track and you could routinely pull 10lb Tailer out of the channel mouth off Chinamans Rock and eat your fill off Oyster Reef.:E

Rolling out on final, Rumdoodle. (Screenshot from my video). Black dots L to lower R is a moraine line of rocks, moving along slowly as the ice sheet flows by.

Hah...I was waiting for the rest of your piccy to load and then scrolled down a bit:} :ugh:

jetstar1 24th Sep 2006 13:29

I made the same mistake as Chimbu! Finals to what exactly? There aint nothing there!

Towering Q 24th Sep 2006 13:33

Gaunty, were you thinking Esperance before the 'GAS thing' started messing with your mind?:eek:

compressor stall 24th Sep 2006 14:24

There is something there! There's a black dot just under the "Fang" (the black isolated peak top right). That black dot is a Hagglunds (tracked oversnow vehicle) two quad bikes and some 44's of AVTUR (ATK). :E
