Jervis Bay (YJBY) to Bathurst (YBTH)Just passing Nowra not long after take-off. The right turn over the BIK VOR. Again, beautifull scenery on this leg... ...with great panoramas from the flight deck. This is what GAAR's all about! ;D Dusk seems to settle in quickly in these surroundings... Bathurst arrival. No fireworks to be seen. 'Guess they run out by now...

Departure for final leg#10 Checkpoint #1 - turning into a new heading Dusk and clouds Sunset reflects the plane! Righthand downwind for rwy 14 - a passionate welcome! At the end turning into final 14 - what a spectacle! Well - GAAR 2010 is history. A big "thanks mate" - it was instructive with a lot of fun! See you next year!
