Hi everybody

After my first post yesterday (http://orbxsystems.com/forums/index.php?topic=1728.msg12986#msg12986) I thought, that I will post some more of my pictures along the way of finding all the fields in Tasmania.

Today I started in Strahan (where I spent the last night in town in a beach cottage  ;) ) to find Cradle Mountain.

Here are some pics from when I sighted the field till the (quit hard) landing with 17kt cross wind.

There are some clouds quite close to the mountains - beware of cumulus granitus

but nice mountain scenery (not as high up as back home - but still  :D )

here we have the field spotted already (1 o clock)

landed (phuh)

Marcel

And another strip found today:

Mt. King Wiliams III

Here the shots:

Cloud ceiling is very low - just stay below

Here we see the strip

Lineup after we missed the first approach - better, this one will do

Landed. In the west of the strip we see the telecom antenna on the hill (just above the plane)

next up will be Bathurst Harbour (easy one - I guess)!
