Stillwater Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Getting ready at Bamaga airfield for a flight into the Torres Strait I met some tourists from Jandakot. Quite the distance they have come with a heli... 36°C and no A/C - all is set for a hot flight. Jackey Jackey Creek is probably a nice place for bigger reptiles. Turtle Head Island doesn´t look much like a turtle´s head from above. Here we left the Australian mainland and travelled further north to Taikan Islet, ... ... Mt. Adolphus Island, ... ... Lacey Island and Little Adolphus Island. But for an intermediate landing I chose Horn Island. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I´ll continue, with current time & weather. Probably more cloudy the next days... Broome is already a bot off the beaten tracks, but travelling across the Torres Strait Islands would be another level. And there is a story for you: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torres_Strait_Islanders , just in case you do not already know. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OZx was an outstanding project (or shall I say "movement"?), giving undescribable additions to Australia in FSX and then P3D. 3 hours ago, adambar said: Fantastic shots and flight Gerold!
