The 90 mile beach piccy.....

I spot at least 3 good snapper fishing spots right there:8

Pity I'm in the UK...Bugger!

Whitianga/Mercury Bay?
The Rugby Ground, the main road, and the Marina kinda give it away.
Hot water beach is about 1 mile to the south of the piccy...:)
Am I right???

(plus my first 500hrs was flying around the Peninsula)

hey kiwihockeyguy - that's actually Ruapehu, although granted the slopes of Ngaruhoe can just be seen to the left. and is that a VFR flight?

Nice part of the world ya got there mate:ok:

Was there just over 3 years ago, stayed at the B&B motel whatever it is on the undershoot of 22......well it was almost! Thought it was fantastic, except in the middle of summer the water was freezing:{ Kids still swam, but came out :sad:

You guys need some global warming down there!

Cheers

Is that Flying Forehead photo taken at Timaru?

ZK-DAN 3rd Mar 2007 05:03

Town was a $9 taxi ride from the airfield. The coffee was good, can't remember the cafe but they served Ozone coffee from NP.

Loving the Allpress Coffee bar at AA domestic too. About time!

No prizes for figuring this one out - worlds largest windsock, also comes in handy for estimating cloud levels AGL....:)

Could that be Mourilyan Mill? been a while since I have seen the mills, but if so I believe your windsock is now bent over due a cyclone last March:eek:

J:ok:

OpsNormal 6th Mar 2007 02:56

Nope, this one still stands - and in fact the one pictured is the smaller of the two largest ones..... In fact it is a dead give away with the name on the side of the building there and all.... :oh:

J430 6th Mar 2007 03:32

Well it must be Marion Mill assuming that you are reffering to two mills close by, as in Racecourse and Marion Mills.

Invicta Mill further north might be bigger in capacity than Marion, but not like Racecourse.

As for the name on the side.....can't read that :ouch:

J:ok:

Pseudonymn 6th Mar 2007 07:36

Pick me! Pick me! Pick me! :} :} :}


J430, small hint. The town is very widely known as being the emitter of the most airborn pollutants in Oz. :ugh:

megle2 6th Mar 2007 08:23

I'll be the dil
It has to be Racecouse Mill East
J430 is getting close
Obviously the Mt Isa sign didn't help
How does he see out the window to fly

J430 6th Mar 2007 10:34

Funny B@stards
 
OK OK OK

I gather the signage says Mount Isa Mines.......but how the heck can you see that on ya laptop!!!!!:ouch:

As for Racecorse Mill East.....I gather you mean east:ugh: ....98% around the globe EAST.........might be not real good at reading a few pixels but MIM is WEST of Mackay, and a bit north also:}

So i guess the sugar is scarce to.....:E

Bloody funny few posts now, glad I provided some light entertainment for you lot!:p :p Going to dig up some hard ones for you guys now:oh:

J:ok:

OpsNormal 6th Mar 2007 11:39

Let'um rip then, whatcha got?!:ok:
