I've decided to do a worldwide tour of the Aussie Outback in the Beechcraft Baron 58. I'll Start off in Perth and End up in Sydney if all goes well. The estimated time to complete will be 5-8 days.

You do realise how big Aussie is right?
But anyway good luck. Make sure you put in a lot of fuel.

Download VOZ before-hand, it enhances australia drastically.

sound good, will be looking forward to the reports!!

Yea I've had a look at that. It takes a while to download though.

YPPH-YMOG-YCUE
Perth-Mount Magnet-Cue

Overall a really good and enjoyable flight, was mostly done on autopilot but some parts were manual.

nice pics, will be keeping an eye on this one

This is great, I might do a similar flight at some stage as it looks like great fun!

what happened mate?

It's been a few days hasn't it?

Maybe you got sidetracked by me on VATSIM

lol it seemed like a great idea but maybe a bit boring for the poor bugger doing the flying?

That was hard hard flying!!!! Imagine flying for the RFD's! OZ is massive!!

You really need VOZ "ZKTOM". It livens up those rather boring desert stretches with some custom landclass textures!

your route is a bit awkward isn't it? you seem to be doubling back on yourself. Anyway liked that sunset!

Australia does that to you - you wind up going in circles!

Is he gonna keep doing this flight? It's been a while. lol his flight path's all over the place! It'll take him twice as long! Anyway, waiting for the next leg

Very Nice
