Stillwater Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 On my tour across the Torres Strait I have come closer to Papua New Guinea than to Australia. And I have found some confusing parking lots at Yam Island... ... an island that has some detail. Anyway: time to leave. Tudu island, quite green I would say. And even there is an airstrip, for the brave & slow. More obvious is the one on Sassie Island... ... did I ever mention that I love the enthusiasm of the OZx community? Coconut Island, not much more than a runway. There are enough lonely islands in the Torres group. This one is not lonely, and famous for Orbx flyers: Murray Island. Easy to land... ... and the ground crew is already waiting to finish maintenance and paperwork.

You may believe that the most welcomed cold thing on these islands is liquid and made from hops. 1 hour ago, bernd1151 said: Excellent screenies, Gerold.

One could intensify the tropical experience, but I was too lazy to land at all of them... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
