Past Pt Augusta finally !!

Whew , it takes alot of patience to fly in OZ . It's always blowing ! For the past 3 day we have only put in about on 120 km . Usually a quick early morning or very late evening flight . Managed to get into the town of Burra about 40km away from where we stopped last post. Nice evening flight into the hills surrounded my wind turbines , ok so that gives you a clue as to what were are up against . Would have liked to go flown further but , it was too dark ! Camped out on the side of the hwy , next day was all wnd , took and late afternoon flight and landed after 5 km , way too wind almost parked on the spot ! Waited for another hr in the paddock and launched again late evening , flew in some strong winds for about 40km and landed . Had some spectators come and see us with their kids , they heard about us in the Cobar news a week earlier , cool ! Did not get out that next morning again too windy , went to town and did the usual in Terowie famous by a visit from General Douglas McArther March 20/1942 we were their the same day at that time 70 yrs later ... both good men just passing by ! we ended up flying past trowie later in the day abd landing about 30 km away from where we started , again so much wind .... launching at about 6:30pm landing by 7:30. Next day was the same, wind switched direction 180 during the night and it started to rain and blow hard , cold front low clouds had to get up at 2am to secure everything , cover and move my tent and stake it down ! March 21, was spent in Peterborough in the morning coffee and brekky... went out and put in a nice late evening flight to Orroroo windy but at my back. Nice flight ... set up camp , sleep !
