Orion, the oceans sentry


Arkanoid

Super pictures !

 

In bad weather they were a bit rough riding due to the stiff wings.

And for the most "fun" one could ride along during a 'MAD comp" flight. (Magnetic Airborne Detection system compensation)

Often the "compensation" portions of the flight were paused for 15 to 20 minutes so some of the crew could regain their composure and obtain new 'barf bags'.

Wonderful caps and an interesting airport.

When I lived in Mildura we often had RAAF Orions doing approaches and circuits. Beautiful sight and sound.

Thanks for your comments. the airport is Z24E Lapangan Terbang Swallow Reef, in the South China Sea.
