A little detour, inbound


Stillwater

Recommended Posts

Continuing the outbound flight we had to bring the DC-3 back from Emo Mission.


It is quite the challenge to bring such a (relatively) big bird into the air on a short runway without overheating the engines.

And the narrow valley does not make it easier! [The famous little paper bags have been distributed before takeoff by our lovely cabin crew...]

But we made it. And could follow Emo River back westwards to the plainland...

... and back to Kokoda.

Ahh, safe. Time for a hot (or cold?) drink.

Again, great leg Gerold! I would think a cold drink would be the order of the day after this flight :) A nice cold, sweaty bottle of beer would do nicely whilst relaxing in the shade of a palm tree with the winds off the ocean helping to cool. Ah, the life of a sim adventure pilot :D
