Aussieflyer38 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 These are just a few I took of Ayers Rock, the other day but didn't have time to post.

I've now discovered the avionics thing happens every time I do a quickie start (ctrl+e) Bit of a pain if you just want to have a quick flight and not go through the C&D procedure. But it is what it is - as they say. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, you can look from above if you take a flight - as you did. And you can still get close and touch it. Plus, I can´t see that route is a nice one for trekking (picture taken 1 month before closing): 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
