Across Australia by Helicopter.

Hi everyone,

This is the beginning of what I hope is going to be a trip of a life time.

From Sydney in New South Wales to my home town of Kununurra in Western Australia in a R44 Helicopter a distance of around 4,000 kms at between 500 and 1,000 feet.

We plan to take 3 and 1/2 days to complete the trip stopping to sleep in Charleville, Mt Isa and Daly waters. There will be three stops per day between these points to take on fuel and to stretch the legs.

For people who have no idea about these towns or Australia for that matter here is a map cimboc knocked up for me.



The R44 is brand new. Here are some pics taken yesterday at Bankstown airport in Sydney.









We plan to leave next Tuesday the 15th and arrive Friday lunch time the 18th.

I will update this thread over the next 7 days as I get ready to go and then 10 days later when I return to NZ I will hopefully upload a stack load of awesome pics for you all.
