That was too quick
 

Well done Capt F and FTDK. I will have to try harder or go somewhere more remote next time.

I thought you were comparing the forktailed and strutless Dr Killers, FTDK, don't tell me you have broken them both??

cheers,

Nivo

Hey there Nivo!

Yeah, the C210 was supposed to go home this weekend, but I see it is still sitting at the aerodrome.

The FTDK is minus tail-feathers at the moment - but that is in the process of being rectified.

May have to borrow Bro's Mooney if I don't get something to fly soon.

Dr :8

PS: C210 vs Bonanza = no contest! The Bo wins hands down!

Hopefully these will take longer

Cape Melville (Just to the east of Princess Charlotte Bay)

and

Hinchinbrook Island (Northern End)

Got these today.

It's damn hard getting a decent in-the-frame front-on airborne shot unless you have a Hercules and hang out the back of it....

The second pic is easy Nivo, but I'll keep my mouth shut and give someone else a go.

Dr :8

(Edit: Sh*t ya gotta be quick around here!)

I give up!
 

Capt F - you're too good for me. You even beat the Dr who was trying to let someone else into the game.

cheers,

Nivo

The first is near Princess Charlotte Bay in between Lockhart and Cape Melville. Most likely the bay in between Pipon Island and Flinders Island.

An Ercoupe:ok:

Piper Colt perhaps?:confused:

J:ok:

Sorry Nivo.

I've obviously spent far too much time scud-running around QLD.

I shall retire from the QLD competition! :ok: :D

Nivo:

Home is close to Walcha.

sc

Well done SC. I didn't think anyone would get that.

cheers,

Nivo

Nivo:

Nice shots, looks like you're using a Canon?

Need to clean your lens. :O:ok::ok:

How the hell didi you get THAT

Well done :D
