Jack Sawyer Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Well, getting closer. This leg is from Darwin, YPDN to Cloncurry, YCCY. Into the soup for a little while Sorry, but I love doing these, always been fascinated by belly cameras, I remember when I was a kid and saw my first NASA shots like this.

Captain Lars Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Wow, the best segment so far! Marvellous impressions from Australia. And the belly cam helped your skills in landing closer to the center line, I guess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sniper31 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 The end is in sight Jack, almost there! Sure nice to finish in an Orbx region after all that barren desert and open sea. Nice set here for the upcoming finale, and there are some great shots here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just pure luck I guess. 9 hours ago, Mikelab6 said: Wow ! Great set of shots Jack ! #5 is awesome ! Mike Thanks Mike!

Stillwater Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 And I thought these belly cams were only installed in some (few) of these modern airliners! Jack´s modifications change the game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon they had far more mechanical problems back then, logistical nightmares, and an entirely different way to navigate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
