tim_A Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 Today's flight takes us to a couple of nice OZx strips... Lining up at Wollongong. [img width=1160 height=341]http://img843.imageshack.us/img843/8868/ta684.jpg The climbout takes us over the township of Albion Park, which is nicely rendered in autogen.

[img width=1160 height=341]http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/8254/ta715.jpg This is a 'from scratch' OZx strip. There's no Afcad, so you can't just jump to it [img width=1160 height=341]http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/232/ta720.jpg But it does have a proper sloping runway... [img width=1160 height=341]http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/8715/ta724.jpg ...and more hangars than you can shake a stick at! [img width=1160 height=341]http://img821.imageshack.us/img821/9633/ta727.jpg There's not much wind, so we landed uphill and took off downhill. [img width=1160 height=341]http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/3220/ta729.jpg [img width=1160 height=341]http://img413.imageshack.us/img413/9370/ta734.jpg Finding Wilton should be easy: It's right next to the Hume Highway. This is the Hume Highway. [img width=1160 height=341]http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/2598/ta736.jpg The Avon Dam, and further to my right, Lake Cordeaux. These dams were completed in 1927 and 1926 respectively. This is part of the Sydney water supply, although the dams themselves are not represented in FS. [img width=1160 height=341]http://img828.imageshack.us/img828/6407/ta740.jpg There it is: Right next to the road!

I can guess where we'll be staying for the night! [img width=1160 height=341]http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/811/ta753.jpg Ok. Fair enough!
