Mallard Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Thanks again for all the comments in the Two blokes, three sisters thread. As I already threatened there (and as it is a public holiday here in this part of Germany - befittingly All Saints Day) I thought I'd try the Twelve Apostles next. After taking off from Avalon Anglesea Power Station and the adjacent coal mine came into sight Further on: the Twelve Apostles! (or nine? Eight? Ten? Certainly not the whole dozen) The coastline could be a bit rougher and more cliff-like, but the scenery is a great little addon... The visitor centre. Once again there's quite a lot of detail - but you'll need a chopper to check all of it out... And finally a quick flyover before coming in to land at Cobden If anyone reading this is wondering what the plane is (I highly doubt it, but you never know...): it's Anthony Lynch's Tiger Moth which you can pick up over at the OZx-forums or (along with a fantastic amount of scenery and other planes) through his homepage www.antsairplanes.com. Highly recomended for real "slow and low" tours of ORBX-land Cheers Mallard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Harmes Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Great pics. And yes I agree Ants Tigermoth is one of the best planes out there for low and slow. Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mallard Posted November 1, 2012 Author Share Posted November 1, 2012 ...where does the paint come from? Check the OZx-site - you'll find heaps of repaints for this plucky little plane over there... Cheers Mallard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mallard Posted November 2, 2012 Author Share Posted November 2, 2012 Once again - thanks for the comments! There was another documentary on the telly yesterday, this time with the Great Ocean Road as the main subject - and of course the Twelve Apostles were shown. As I mentioned in the opening post the cliffs are what are really missing in this bit of scenery. That, and that the whole surroundings immediately around that stretch of coast are a bit too lush and green... Otherwise the rest of the area with the Otway National Park and Flora and Fauna Reserve appears to be is pretty much as it is supposed to be. Cheers Mallard (the second documentary following the one on the Great Ocean Road was about the Bay of Islands in NZ... Guess where I'm heading next?)

John Lovell Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Fantastic shots and scenery One I feel guilty as I need to explore this area more.. perhaps ill reserve this for a virtual vacation as the winter looms in NA.
