After a few days of sightseeing it was time to leave Brisbane...

... but not without another view to the city.

It was not too long to reach the Gold Coast region. Do these guys own boats instead of cars?

Just a great view, though my rig comes to its limits with all these details to load.

Griffith University Hospital below us - there could be another helipad for a try.

For today we just land at Gold Coast airport, Coolangatta / Tweed Heads. I think some of our forum members live nearby?

No reason for "me" to look so... serious.

Maybe a drink helps bringing the smile back into the pilot´s face.

Lots to see in these shots Gerold. The Gold Coast region in your sim is looking nice, and well detailed. I nice cold beer after a tough day at the sim controls is always a nice way to cap off a flight ;) I mean, it's hard work having fun sometimes, right? :D

 

Cheers

Landon

 

P.S. Just realized....no flight route map...on second thought, put that frosty beer down and get back to work, er, I mean fun :unsure:^_^

I like the tough days you are describing, Landon, a challenge that we like to accept! Unfortunately there are also other ways of working in our days (or is it rather fortunately?).

And, just to complete my documentation:

Stunning shots Gerold, there are so many waterways around YBCG.

I think they all own boats.:)

cheers

I am also suspecting the boat option. Which has another advantage when global warming speeds up.

Welcome Gerold! I don't own a boat but I have a swimming pool. BYO beer, I'll supply the food. Thanks for sharing mate.

Cheers

Graeme :)

BMO beer... how can I manage that with the luggage limits on these modern airlines? It will take some time for me to find a solution for that dilemma...

You guys are making me thirsty. :D  Great set there Gerold, enjoyed the flight! :)

Cheers! Unfortunately with the current travel restrictions we are still on BYO. At least I have a good supply situation here in my cockpit…
