Ultralights - those photos show a familiar stomping ground... I do miss those cloudless beautiful blue sky winter days... But then I can remember seeing sights like Lodowns top photo while flying IFR around that same area... :uhoh:

Too bad that airport between the hills and the nearmost power station is closed now - sad story that one :{

I remember VJ's, Gwen12's, Dutchmen, Sharpies. Our swimming test was being thrown off the end of the pier. The guy in charge of us cadet sailers was a retired tugboat skipper.

Yeah but that photo will do more for air force recruiting than any clip of some young guy whizzing up valleys at dot feet with his backside on fire! :ok:

404 Titan,

Yep, Anchorage .. Lake Hood FloatPlane Airport to be exact.

The other ... Mojave Airport east of LAX.

jetbrett 27th Aug 2006 08:25

To all those that have replied to this thread thankyou very much, we have seen some really good piccies whilst keeping a lighter side to prune, keep the interesting photos coming. Heres a few more of mine.

This is Shute Harbour, one of my favourite aviation memories landing here. A really good approach, requires an oblique final until about 200' when you get clear of that mountain and kick her round to land.

http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...6/DSC00635.jpg


This was about 20 minutes after we landed, sitting at the bar having a very cold frothy watching the Air Whitsunday flight line fill up. Very cool airport. Ahhh, good memories.

Great Strip at YSHR. Dropped in there up and back to Cairns last week, and interesting to see they plan to seal it and add a taxiiway on both sides.

Friendly bunch and a good cafe and bar.

Woomera 31st Aug 2006 23:20

Please, Please, Please............ :{

On Page two of this thread, when pictures up to 250 kb had been posted, I asked that picture file sizes be limited to 100 KB maximum, 640 x 480 pixels.

Since then pictures in excess of 400 kb have been posted, which are not only a total waste of band width, but are impossible to see.

Hello, Hello? Anyone home??? Read my posts on Page 2 - if you still don't know how to limit picture size, PM or email Woomera before you post. :ugh:

Unfortunately, pictures that exceed reasonable size will be removed. :=
