Victor 1 with twiddly bits

For a treat for my brother and nephew who are currently in Australia, I offered to take them for a scenic flight over Sydney. Whilst I've done the scenic flight a few times before now, I decided to have a go at doing the optional orbits over the harbour. I've been reluctant in the past as it involves a bit more radio work as you have to get permission from the guys at Sydney International Airport to be able to do this.



Anyway, whilst the radio was certainly busy, I managed the calls okay and even got back to Camden before dark. I later learnt that my flying instructor was in one of the other planes flying around the harbour. It was perhaps as well I didnt know this was the case until after the flight!
