Hiya,

If anyone likes flying in Australia, here's a nice little trip to do in a GA single or twin if you have about an hour to spare.

1. Start at YBAF
2. After takeoff (probably from 10L), climb to 1,000' and turn 135. This should take you between Target and the Park Ridge water tower (handy if you've got some oz scenery installed)
3. Once you're the other side of the Logan river, begin your climb to cruise alt (suggest 5,500') turn towards Jacobs Well (VOR - JCW or the airport YHEC).
4. At Jacobs Well, turn south to Murwillumbah (YMUR but on my Aussie Pak it seems to be 2AUS)
5. At Murwillumbah, turn direct to YLIS.
6. Land at YLIS. Grab a coffee and a bite to eat at Caddies Cafe and turn around and head back the same way.

This flight has a couple of nice features. First is the procedure to leave the airspace. You must maintain 1,000 and 135 deg until past the Logan River (on the way back report at the water tower at 1,500'). Then there's the nice trip down past the Gold Coast and Coolangatta (if you have some scenery installed). Then the trip over the Jerusalem National Park with Mt Warning in the distance.

Some shots...

Enjoy!
