Derek McAllan Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 G'day all, A brief series of five pics from me today (I'm still having way too much fun blowing up Kerbonauts on their launchpad!) The flight was intended to be a nice leisurely early morning plod in the Cessna 172 up from Alexandra, crossing the range and landing at Omarama to pick up a Discus for some soaring action Flying in real weather, however, conspired to make the flight a little more challenging. Whilst visibility was excellent, and the sky had very few clouds, I was confronted with 16kts of crosswind from a morning westerly at the airfield, which increased to 46kts a mere 5,000' off the deck. Needless to say, the poor old Skyhawk spent the entire flight drifting right as much as forward. Anyway, enough talk, more pics... Hope you liked them! Cheers, Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
