The storm front
R30 is 1.679km longThe first photo is me getting ready to check the plane and the second shot is me flying. It is pretty dark, due to those storm fronts comming in, so I do not have my snap-on shades attached. Yeah I have those big aviation glasses, but mine are nearly plane glass with a small reading channel.
I managed to land at Canberra before it started to rain, some 30 minutes before last light. The tower controllers did turn the runway lights on to improve our chances of locating the runway.
The storm front held off long enough and the rain was only quite light, and no thunder, lightning or hail eventuated.
