I was one of six Bathurst Soaring Club members in four aircraft (C182, Maule M4, Hornet Cub & Corby Starlet), who enjoyed an 808nm five day trip around NSW (& briefly VIC) last week.

Day 1    Bathurst – Temora (fuel, brunch).  Temora – Hay (fuel).  Hay – Mungo Lodge

Day 2   Guided tour around the (dry) lake & its World Heritage features.

Day 3   Mungo Lodge – Swan Hill  (fuel, lunch)  Visited the Catalina Museum, Lake Boga.

Day 4   Swan Hill – Tocumwal (fuel, lunch) Visited the Aviation Museum & the Gliding Club hangar (one of the original, huge WW2 hangars, which accommodated B24 Liberators)

Swan Hill – Temora (fuel)

Day 5   Temora – Bathurst.  Cancelled planned visit to the Temora Museum, due encroaching weather at Bathurst.

All together a most enjoyable trip. Both aviation Museums are well worth the visit and comprehensively detail the importance of these aerodromes / lake during WW2.
