Telstra ChildFlight Dauphin
Corporate Hoore was lucky enough to fly the
Telstra Childflight
Dauphin.
|
The Dauphin is so big they need a tractor to pull it from the hangar!
|
|
Did I say "big?"
|
|
|
"All aboard!"
|
|
|
Luckily, Terry knows how to fly it!
|
|
Starting up
|
|
|
The takeoff is vertical and slightly backwards
so that if we have a single-engine failure, we'd be able to get some airspeed and and land back
where we started.
|
|
|
It's very stable to fly and the secondary effects of controls seem negligible.
|
|
(I hope the Police are getting this on radar...)

|
Left turn at the Heads
|
|
|
|
Past Manly
|
|
Let's see how she corners!
|
|
|
|
Up to Barrenjoey Lighthouse
|
|
Then down the lane back to Westmead
|
|
|
Shutting down

|
Thanks, ChildFlight!
