tim_A Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 It's been nearly four months since the last flight in this tour, so I thought I'd better start with a brief recap. At the end of my Victoria tour, I was in Albury. From there I headed to Canberra, and thence into NSW proper. The route so far is shown on the map. Today's leg is highlighted. We'll be departing the Blayney Air farmers strip, where the plane's been hangared for the last few months (thanks to an OZx deal...), and heading South...

Or it would have been, If I'd spotted the airfield in time the first time around! [img width=1160 height=348]http://img842.imageshack.us/img842/9831/ta426.jpg Short final. This is a nice little OZx'd-up strip [img width=1160 height=348]http://img713.imageshack.us/img713/5268/ta431.jpg I shall park up, then it looks like there'll be time for a G&T on the verandah...

John York Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Yep, lovely shots Tim. When do we see the new version of PlanG? Or haven't you time for that now you've gone back to Ossieland? John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tim_A Posted August 27, 2010 Author Share Posted August 27, 2010 When do we see the new version of PlanG? Or haven't you time for that now you've gone back to Ossieland? ' It's in test. There's a few loose ends to tidy up, some bugs to fix and the manual to be finished. I'm hoping it'll be ready by the end of September. There isn't a flight I make in FS that doesn't also involve an element of testing for P-G... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
