Entry 2. Flight to WA. Location of photo unknown.
The short ‘runway’ on Pentecost Island, Vanuatu. At the end of the grass is a cliff, a sheer drop into the sea. When taking off the plane drops off the edge at speed before climbing again. The other end of the runway is just a few feet behind the plane. When landing a week earlier the pilot hit the ground as close to the cliff as he could & then jammed on the brakes. The ground was wet & he got the plane ‘sideways’ but managed to stop inches before ploughing into the jungle. The plane was splattered with mud like a 4wd.

Entry 3.
Air force / Army flying around at the time of the 2013 floods.
If helicopters are planes then my entry is a chopper flight at Helen's Gorge West Macs. Bloody scary with no doors...LOL

Guess I should say something about that now that you’ve raised it. I have also been asked about via PM.Quote:

So Planes & Choppers it is.
If you think it should be broadened further to ‘Aircraft’ click Thanks on this post. If I get 15 or more thanks I’ll make it Aircraft. If less than 15 we’ll keep it at Planes & Choppers.
Please don’t engage in discussion of your thoughts on this within the the thread.
Thanks

Fixed the title Cuppa and added Chppers.
This is a very hard category for me to post in!!!!! Seriously! I can't decide! Short listing at the moment.
