VH-KDK Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 An early morning flight from Glen Innes to Wellcamp. Well to the East of Gerold, i am not sure where i will fly next but it will be hard for Gerold to find me in this vast land. FTX AU, Trees, OZx, Holgermesh AU, FSX, Virtualcol SAAB 340, ASN, REX TD EE. 1. Got an old friend out of the box and here loading up at YGLI Glen Innes Northern NSW. 2. Only a light fuel load for the short hop to Toowoomba so the 340 takes no time getting into the air. 3. Over Torrington State Recreational Area. 4. At the Sundown NP close to Ballendean. 5. The lights of Stanthorpe. 6. Leslie Dam glints in the early morning sun at Warwick. 7. In the Leyburn area and not far to go now. 8. Coming into land at Wellcamp avoiding the YBOK RAAF base at Oakey. 9. A small bounce and we are there. 10. The giant cones are in view again as the SAAB is unloaded at Wellcamp. Hope you enjoyed the flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulb Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Great flight and narrative Martyn! I like the way the time of day changes during your flight. Here is a pic of a Saab with a different registration...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just in case you do decide to look they don't exist but I do expect that someone has named their property "Monaco" somewhere in Oz! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Adam. The cones are of extraordinary size and very hard to get in and out of the plane. The pilots are good as they always help the flight attendant with them.
