Holidays on Bali

Before taking one week off for holidays the last leg started on Java - Jakarta (WIII) and ended on the nice holiday island in Bali (WADD). Nice trip, although I lost network connection and therefore could not finalize the VL. However, the landing on Bali island was wonderful.


After one week in the mountains (Switzerland, but Bali would for sure have been nice too ;-) two more legs took me more eastwards on the island of west and east timor (El Tari - WATT and Cakung/Baucau WPEC). Finally I reached a timezone where I'm able to fly again with better daylight. So the last landing was already 5am local time. Sun was not there yet but you could imagine where it will rise on the horizon. Navaids are definitely not Timor's or this region's speciality (VOR/NDB indicated in GPS but unfortunately no frequency found to tune in...). But still, as there are so many islands with almost unique shapes flying around and navigating by looking out of the windows works very good.


See you soon when touching ground in Australia,
