Dec 13. Australian Navigation Challenge!

Post by Corsair015 »

I have decided to put your navigation skills to the test! (should you choose to join)
This is a no GPS challenge! All map reading and deduced reckoning from here. (Radio beacons may be used)
I will take your word that you don't have a GPS installed, or have it turned off the whole time (even if you get hopelessly lost!)

Right, here is the planned route
We'll be taking off from YSSY (Sydney) and heading on a course of 304M tracking towards Richmond (YSRI)
From Richmond we fly a heading of 269 for about till we get to Bathurst (YBTH)
Then we fly a short hop from there to Orange (YORG) on a heading of 262
Another short hop from there flying 278 to Cudal (YCUA)
Second to last is Forbes (YFBS) which lies on a heading of 251 from Cudal
Then we fly 037 to get to our final destination of Parkes (YPKS)

We'll be flying over some interesting terrain, so low flying is probably the way to go. VFR all the way! We will also make a few touch and go-s at some of the more interesting airports ;)

I'll leave it up to you to find waypoints to navigate by, physical or not. It should be fun anyways :)

I am going to fly this challenge but it won't be at 0500. I'll leave it until later in the day. Thanks for posting. Looks fun.

Fun, but time is impossible for me.
