Nice find, dont worry you are not the only one procrastinating at the moment!

 

I was going to say that doesnt look like Williamtown or Amberly. I dont think its albatross either. Definitely somewhere on the east coast but.

The wind on the day was being reported as 30-40knots nearly all cross. This was at an air show south of Sydney. Only about 3 brave aviators ventured into the luft due crosswind another brave soles attempt just prior to the Hornets departure:

Wow, now that's incredible. (In a BMS training session, they have a cross wind landing with the F-16, really scares the s*** outta ya coming in.... 30 knots or so)

 

But I give it to those Aussie pilot's, nice job with getting those birds off the ground. :thumbup:
