Very nice, I've always wanted to have a go in one of those. None in NZ sadly!

SWTT, very much like what the nine pack is bolted too. Familiar looking V-tail spotted lurking on the other side of the windshield.

Speaking of King Island, there was a very schmick RV14 down there from YRED a couple of weeks back. I'm guessing only one of perhaps a couple flying in Aus.

I regret not having had a closer look at Alan Carlisle’s RV14 while at YKII. Too busy BF’ing CFK, GIII!
My RV10 kit will hopefully be on its way .... soon. |
3 x PPRuNers in YKII in the one week... a busy place!

Helicopters fly because they are so ugly the Earth repels them.......

I’m guessing it was a wind gust from a thunderstorm or rotor wash? |
Re Above... gust of wind prior to the arrival of a front. How's this for a whack on the noggin..? |

Pinky, you should try Panorama mode on your phone. You do have a camera in your phone, don't you?! :}
|
Dunno about you, however I just click on it and it comes up in the big size..... |
Spent a quiet hour at the YPPH viewing area:

My friend George Cannon used to fly for Sepik Airways. He has passed away now. He had similar photos in PNG when they were shifting around amazing loads from dredges to cars and trucks, stuffed into the back of those Fokkers. Thanks for sharing.

Mammatus clouds are pouch-like cloud structures. They're also a rare example of clouds in sinking air-- most clouds form in rising air. Although mammatus most frequently form on the underside of a cumulonimbus, they can develop underneath cirrocumulus, altostratus, altocumulus and stratocumulus.

Started up as this... https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....20d78126f.jpeg |
And, according to BOM, while they might look pretty dramatic and often appear around the same time as severe storms, mammatus clouds themselves are perfectly harmless. |
|
Few more from YPPH today
more in the photostream |
West Sale, where they are spending lots of money to extend the runway.... https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....0681e936a.jpeg Edit: Oops, hadn’t noticed half of my body reflecting over the photo lol. |
Another few hours of photography at Perth Airport
|
GRAND PRIX
Some good vision from the Hornet doing its stuff over the Grand Prix circuit. I was impressed with how the go pro hung on. The C17 appeared pretty low over the crowd. https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....4a8c7e0b6.jpeg |
Looking forward to the F35 doing that... :}
A couple of virtual vomits here with some of that negative G! :{ |
Our thankless Pilots and Paramedics going about their jobs in all hours in all weather. Barely a night would go past where you open up your EFB and not see them trundling across the sky.

I don’t know how he does it. Flying upside down looks very painful !! |
I WAS LOOKING THROUGH SOME OF DAD'S SLIDES TODAY AND COME ACROSS THESE:

I remember that. Changes to engine shut down procedures followed.
