Stillwater Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Though Deny King lived here for 55 years, I decided to leave Melaleuca after spending the night down ther in good company. This place looks great in the sim... ... but we head out over Bathurst Harbour... ... and turn north at Davey Head. After flying for quite some time over the wilderness (and loneliness), we reach Macquarie Harbour, with the mouth of Gordon River to Starbord. Here we reach Hell´s Gates, who wonders about this name should start reading here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macquarie_Harbour_Penal_Station (whilst Sarah Island itself is missing in the sim). Strahan Airport is below, but who needs an airport... ... when you can go to the city center directly. Unfortunately some buildings are missing in p3dv4 here. But still that worth it for me!

Thank you, Mr. Navigator. But I have to disappoint you: I do not own a Beaver, this is a Cessna 185F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That´s so great here on the forum: You not only get inspirations for upcoming flights, but also some history & geography lessons. Much more than simming pleasure.

Thanks Martyn. Indeed the inland in Tassies Southwest also has lots to show, but I skipped it today, knowing that TassieTigerFlow is not yet established by Orbx. I hope there is something to come, we are waiting since 1936 for this invention! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thylacine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
