Dragons Lair
R22 in the hover at the base of Wallaman Falls Queensland in 2001. When you pull into an OGE hover next to a waterfall beastie time slows to a crawl, it's the most amazing experience.

Childs Play
Found in a kids sandpit at Esperance Western Australia 2004. Built by their LAME (Licenced Aircraft Maintenance Engineer) dad the finish was a lot better than a lot of commercially built machines.

Some very ordinary weather here in Queensland lately!
Aircraft waiting in Roma, QLD for tasking on flood relief work.
Not all bad though!

I do have a medium format panoramic camera (Yes, film!
) but these panoramic images are multiple images stitched together in Photoshop.

Top of the World
It's the Wet up in the north of Western Australia, so the flying from Broome to Truscott and back was....... interesting 
On the way around Derby there are areas of the coast that are just stunning, many with tidal falls of dozens of metres!
Truscott is an old RAAF wartime base, as far beyond the Black Stump as you'd want to go without swimming the Timor Sea:
CHC Australia have 4 Super Pumas and a 225 there: and plenty of books to read

Just a couple more out of Truscott: Viking 2 underway:
One of CHC's hangar: impressive ingenuity
Back past The Funnel
Then on to Derby and Broome:
