Curtis Aviation's Cessna 182, BXO, about to start the scenic pattern around Uluru & the Olgas.
She's rather wonderful, isn't she?
And these old girls are just as impressive ... meet Kata Tjuta (the Olgas).
We're allowed to fly a published pattern around the two rock formations, sticking to a specific route and height.
That's the Olgas (Kata Tjuta) in the background.
Nice morning for pics.
A good zoom lens helps!
On a revisit to Uluru in Sept 2018, it's peak hour at the bowser as BMX falls into the queue for fuel. If we stay for less than an hour - they waive the landing fee! Happy days!
It's worth saving some time to walk around the base of Uluru too.
Uluru looks different from any angle.
Time to get going again - we're heading southbound today, across the stunning APY Lands of SA.
YAYE (Ayers Rock airport) is an easy, pilot-friendly stopover. Come on out!
