Stillwater Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Heading north from Pormpuraaw the weather became better ( http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/58240-heading-north-in-cloudy-weather/ ), but the terrain gets slightly wet. Not easy to get around there on the ground... Heading slightly northeast... That one is called "Toby´s yard", not many international flights there, I suppose. Getting back to the west coast of the peninsula, towards Poonko... ... and following the coast northwards: Ti-Tree Outstation: Approaching Kencherang: Well that´s a surprise here: A DC-3 - though only usable as spare part source... ... and there are already some guys approaching to get these parts, I assume: OK, getting on towards Aurukun, for today´s final landing: Nice airports on Yorke peninsula, and another different landscape to what I have seen preivously on my tour. Great to discover that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retep49 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 DetCord, these are all OZX airfields and Kencharang Camp YKNC was made by Mark Lee. The wet season starts on the first of December. I have made a screenshot for you with the coordinates in the upper left corner. And here you can find 340 OZX airstrips selectable in FSX: http://aussiex.org/forum/index.php?/files/file/1753-340-ozx-airstrips-selectable-in-fsx/ Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Lee added so much to OZx, and an extreme amount of work in Queensland / AU green. And I did forget to honour John Hockings for the Normanton airfield.

Thanks Gerold B.T.W. these are very nice shots you have made and it's a great area to discover. When you go to the east coast of Queensland, and start from Silver Plains YSVP on the first of December, than you can also see that area is flooded in that time of the year.

AirborneSTIG Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 Outstanding tour.....I'm enjoying this very much. That looked like the kind of place that you only want to over fly if you have a high caliber rifle on board....just in case. If that wasn't saltwater crocodile territory, I don't know what is!
