Hi all. Been a while since I've posted anything of interest. So thought I'd share our latest adventure. 8 days. Approx. 2000nm. 27hrs. Av fuel burn of 17.5 lt/hr. I thought I would make a new post each day for the next 8 days. Hope it inspires others who are still building!

cheers

There were 3 aircraft - our Kitfox SS7, Friends Col and Anna in their Super Cub and friends Tony and his mate Jason in Tony's old C180. We left from Col's farm and had a good tailwind for the first leg.

It wasn't long until Tony and Jason passed us while we slowed down and flew along with Col and Anna.

We headed for the Opal mining town of White Cliffs the first night and it didn't take long to get out of the nice faring country and into the outback! We stopped off at Ivanhoe for a pee stop. A pretty brisk crosswind and about 20 Kangaroos met us there.

Finally on the ground at White cliffs after a pretty spirited cross wind landing - 20 knots 30 degrees off the nose! But it was a good first day!!

We visited the underground hotel and enjoyed an evening at the White Cliffs pub with the locals.
