Absolutely awful skies. Overcast for most.
We were graced by RAAF C17 for a few circuits before heading on home to RAAF Base Amerley in Queensland. Only 2500km away.
The white ribbon is in support of domestic violence.

Very nice. Those things are HUGE. Had one fly over the house a few years ago & it was quite low too. Heard it long before I could see it.


A skill is developed through constant practice with a passion to improve, not bought.

Great series – nice work. Particularly like #2 and the wheels down shot in #3.

Cheers

Dennis
