Stillwater Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Here we go on, from Ant´s beautiful Hamilton Aero airport. Just a few minutes later we climb over the Grampians range. As so often before, I can state the mesh is much more impressive now in AUv2. Sadly the Balconies (formerly called Jaws of Death) are still missing, so you have to look here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grampians_National_Park Bellfield Lake. Halls Gap. The Grampians airfield by OZx. Seems to be fitting well into AUv2. Unfortunately the photoreal Naracoorte Lakes don´t work well in the new Australia. But Younghuusband peninsula is more detailed than before. Into Goolwa for a slow approach to the next city. Guess which. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not many flaws, many FLIES down there in the wilderness... ! PS: Some issues need to be observed, but that is not unusual given the age of OZx, me thinks.

Plenty of floors at The Balconies/Jaws of Death but not many flies here over the last two years which is worrying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Lars Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Very good shots, Gerold, but there's one thing that I don't understand and that's why they are not called "Jaws of Death" anymore. I mean, come on, that's a really cool name! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, there are so many places overcrowded with tourists - some awful names could be a good tactics? One could rename the "Fontana di Trevi" into "Fountain of great black spiders", what´d you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd think that I'd be especially keen to visit a place called "Jaws of Death" or "Fountain of Great Black Spiders", but sure I am very special in this regard... There was once a place called "Snake Island" in Lake Wörtersee in Austria that was renamed to "Flower Island" just because the tourists thougt there would be snakes dwelling on that island, although the name was just because of the shape of the island. I just noticed that most of the smilies are gone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
