I felt like a little play in Australia for a change, so I loaded up the VOZ South West Summer textures (nice and dry) for a nice VFR hop between Camden (YSCN)- just west of Sydney- and Cowra (YCWR) which would take me about 45 minutes in my beautiful Piper Cherokee from Carenado (N reg. please excuse that I have no VH. reg paint for it).

I took off at what I thought was early evening, but annoyingly the sun sank really fast and I ended up making a dark nightime landing, so I decided to fly back from YCWR to YSCN to make a complete return trip, this time set to early morning instead.

Here are 12 screenies I took- not too many from the return leg as I was battling the turbulence over the mountains flying by hand

1. Depearting YSCN


2. Climbing out over the dusty farm scape


3. Sun setting to my left


4. Another angle- this one looks a bit better


5. Sun refecting on the fuselage


6. More nice landclass


7. Out the window


8. Over some lake- notice the VOZ water textures


9. This is the sort of light I spent the last 30 minutres flying in


10. Arriving at Corwa after 50 minutes flying time after having to divert off course to avoid a large clump of clouds


11. Wing view from the return flight- landclass =


12. I made a perfect landing back at Camdan which made me really happy- most of the time I flare too early, come in too steep or shallow and touch down too far to one side of the centreline, but this one was spot on for me


Cheers for looking, I know my shots were of nothing special, but I thought I would post them as I havn't posted any screenies in quite a while

Nice shots......looks like a great flight.

Thanks for sharing
