Jack Sawyer Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Finally made it to Darwin, not too many legs left till I arrive in Melbourne. This leg was from Koepang, WATT to Darwin, YPDN Way too much open ocean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Lars Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Insert an open water shot here and there to show that you really fly over so much open water. Congrats on your 19th leg! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats on your 19th leg! I should have Lars, didn't think of it, but trust me, the entire flight was over a couple hundred miles of water.

I agree, it would have been better that way, I even thought so when I posted, wished I had taken some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I'm now in Australia I'm gonna keep her dressed this way for the next five legs. Been quite a learning experience and adventure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VH-KDK Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Not much to see on this part Jack but that is the last of the boring open water. Now you just have about 2,500km of red desert to cross with the occasional oasis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradB Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 I see they have "Devil's Tower's in Indonesia also ( shot #1 ) . Anyway great shots from your epic journey Jack , hopefully Martyn has some cold one's icing down and some shrimp on the barbie when you arrive in Melbourne .

Stillwater Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Good you escaped the Asian Devil´s Tower, Jack, and a pleasure to see you have finally made landfall. Time flies, just as your trip does! But, mate, you should definetively follow Martyn and me and install OZx - including Darwin International airport this is ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried OZx but could never figure out how to install it, it always seems too complicated to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just go here http://aussiex.org/forum/index.php?/files/file/1825-single-links-ozx-au-complete-ozx-na-complete-ozx-libraries/ and download OZx AUS 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5, nothing else. Then grab the new P3Dv4-ready library from http://aussiex.org/forum/index.php?/topic/27004-ozx-p3d-libraries-open-beta-updated-18012018/ . If all works well you will scroll through the download area and grab some more... PS: I can´t delete this unnecessary picture, sorry... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might give it a try but I don't want to pull my hair out. I wish it was as east as FTX. On another note, I'm now making the flight from Darwin, but I'm supposed to go to Newcastle Waters, well, in P3D's airport list there is nothing with that name, I get YWLM but that's something like 1700 miles away, the race charts tells me it should be due south at 384 miles. So I'm skipping that leg and going straight to Cloncurry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
