Arid Recovery's system seems to be working well now we have swapped a couple of units around to take advantage of some of the power improvements that were made with final batch of the C1's.
Mel's hard work developing the system has already shown benefits with the least being the ability to check the traps with out getting out of her PJ's on a cold Sunday morning. She has a high level of confidence in the system and is comfortable with the results that are displayed.
I am heading up to Napperby on Sunday and will have a full days flying to get there. There is a massive rain system coming across in the next couple of days so I must get a early start otherwise I will get caught out. It is meant to be a one in twenty year event. Some of the properties north of here have not had rain for almost two years so I hope the expected drenching occurs.
Napperby will take about seven hours of flying time so I will need to get into the air at first legal light (8:00am). I should be at Napperby by 4:30. The trip to Napperby is just over 1000km but the range of the aircraft is about 10km short of that. Murphy strikes again and its a bit hard to pull over and top up from a Jerry can so Copper Pedy for fuel it is, and possibly one other stop dependant on the wind.
