Hey all

I have been flying around Australia lately and I was wondering if there was any special places to go. I know FSX has placed little scenery gems all over the world. I have tended to stick close to home (YYVR) but I am picking an area in the world and flying around it. Currently I am flying a nicely painted Qantas 737-800 but moving to a smaller plane would be nice to tour around special places.

:)

Good' day Mates

Not from Australia, but I think there's a big rock somewhere in the middle of a desert that might be worth checking out... ;D

You mean Ayers rock.  ;D

Real descriptive!!!  ;)

One time I was showing my friend FSX and I accidently went to some place in South-East Australia that had a big fountain.

Maybe I'm just dreaming things, but I was wondering if anyone knew where that was.

Don't have FTX, does it show up in default?

Have to look that up, is that the name of the city?
What is the nearest airport?

Thanks!

If you haven't looked it up yet it is the city and airport name. Not sure about default. Here it is in FTX.

I used to live in Geelong..... but I doubt Ballarat has been mapped and done for a bit of panning for gold ;D
