FlyingVizsla Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 The ABC have posted 17 colour enhanced photos of the Australian land mass with the challenge to identify their location. I thought I knew where 17 was, but the orientation of the racetrack and cross strip didn't match Google Earth. Some are the sand dunes. Have a go. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-10-14/scott-kelly-snaps-australia-from-space/6853052 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can please contact me at Longreach Aircraft Maintenace. Regards Shona Daveson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Andys@coffs Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Yeah.....I was thinking about becoming an accountant at the time and was specifically practising look at and analysing where I had been rather than where I was going,. Had I been more strategic I would have been flying from SA to FNQ and not the reverse!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
