Decided to do another low approach to TAP to get a close up view of the strip. 1. Flying down that valley again. 2. Nice and low this time and well to the right side of the valley. The goat track points the way. 3. Used an HUD for the first time but it is challenging at a low height with a green background. 4. All looks good this time around. 5. Would liked to have the wheels on the ground before now, just hope I can stop in time. 6. Reverse thrust and hard braking now deployed. 7. The steep slope is doing it's work although the angle of this shot does not show it too well. 8. Nearly stopped, now all I have to do is park. 9. The C-17 has a very handy turning circle. 10. All parked up turned off. That was very immersive but I did not think it was possible and very surprising at only the second attempt. Now co pilot, get me the flight plan for Limberlost .

It may well be the last thing we are going to do. Problems with the throttle of only one engine working meant having to reload the C-17 which is why it appears to be parked tail in in these shots. It was hard enough attempting a take off with 4 engines so I don't think one would have been enough. Hold on to your hats and see if the C-17 made it. 1. Now facing the other way due to engine problems but all 4 motors are now operating. 2. Most of the village has turned out to see if we can lift off. 3. Tails up and we go charging down the slope. 4. I said most of the village but these 2 hens were not interested and would rather feed their faces. 5. Starting to pick up speed but still not going fast enough to be confident of lifting off. 6. The slope is apparent in this shot. 7. Lucky the banana saw us coming and ducked under the wing! 8. That is all the runway we have so heave back on the yoke and hope we unstick. 9. That was close but just some trees to clear. 10. Hope we did not blow too many coconuts off the palm. 11. Very steep climb away from Tapini. 12. Banking to avoid a mountain, the perils of not looking where you are going and instead admiring the scenery. A very exciting day with the Globemaster both at PAGS and in PNG. Hope you have enjoyed this series of posts.

Took off from AYPY a couple of weeks ago on a flight to AYMH Mount Hagen. http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/90882-jackson-5-times-two-plus-one/ I got a little side tracked and forgot to post the rest of the flight. Glad you waited and there is more..... below 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. But wait there's more. Us older folks in Australia will remember Tim Shaw's ads 20 years ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?x-yt-cl=84503534&x-yt-ts=1421914688&v=iiATDMHU7gc&list=PLDE1E977AB4865CB9 Thinking now as the Medivac chopper just flew over heading north. Pitch black 4.40 on the morning means someone is in big trouble. Hope all ends OK for them.
