~ 166 Airports, Fields, or off road (4 Countries- hopefully more soon :)

If you put all your airports/off airports on SkyVector, you can make a cool map of the places you've been.  These are mine:

      In North American Continent (US, Mex, Canada, Hawaii)

      In AUSTRALIA  (MegaFauna 2014, etc)

      ALL  (get's a little crowded in this view)

Australia Flying-- Questions from the Yanks

Last updated by XC Triker Comments (1)

G'day Ozzies,

Was wonderin' if you could answer some questions about flying down under & maybe provide some other local color.

Is a US Sportpilot license recognized in Australia?

Is reciprocity for a US Private Pilot license WSC straightforward?

You drive on the opposite side of the road, do you fly airport patterns on the opposite side of the airport? ;)

      Just kidding, but do you know what major differences a US pilot might find in Oz?

      US Lightsport trikes are allowed into all controlled airspace (though they would likely be declined permission to land at LAX (Los Angeles Intl)), do certain Australian trikes/pilots have that ability? (eg to fly through Sydney airspace?)

Are there any Trikes for hire (to rent) in Australia?

Do you have anything like SkyVector.com for Australia?  (SkyVector is a free "Planning" chart software ("not to be used for planning")):

     Here's what skyvector shows in the US for the beginning of a trip from LAX to KJFK (Los Angeles to NY)

SkyVector US

 

This is all we see when we point SkyVector toward Australia:

Australia SkyVector

Not many airports, lots of beach  ;)

 

Does the beer taste better upside down?

Do the toilets really flush backwards?

 

All these things and more Yank Pilots want to know about Oz!
