Mallard Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Right - so after the first leg I changed planes in Manila. On to Port Moresby in another classic Global kicking in and doing it's thing The last of the Philippines Here we're already over the Bird's Head-like peninsula in north-western Irian Jaya. The two lakes are Giji and Gida The Baliem Valley I did forget that I was travelling three time-zones east - so evening was kicking in really fast You can just about make out the peak of Mount Bosavia in the background A few minutes later it was pitch dark. So no pics of the arrival at AYPY... Bright and early the next day the final leg to Cairns was done with a 727 And here - just about an hour later - the Barrier Reef Some more or less cropped DX10s with SweetFX. If you're wondering about the ground textures in PNG - I chose Oceania in FTX central before departing from Port Moresby. The pics of Irian Jaya / PNG on the flight from the Philippines is "pure" Global Cheers Mallard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stillwater Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Re part 2: Great bird & livery you have chosen - plus interesting trip infos around. Re part 3: Another well suited airline, for a trip which I have done quite some times in hybrid mode (which works well, no worries). And your Cumulus does its trick! After all: Thanks Mallard, I enjoyed watching! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
