Here are some shots of her on the ground in Alice today.
Hopefully over the next few day's I'll be able to get some of her in the air....

Word is that they may delay the flight testing as they are wanting a 38C+ conditions, and this week in only forecast to get to 35C
(Last week was over 40C every day)

You can tune in via the YBAS LiveATC feed as well as the FR24 feeds....

Looks like he's headed your way actually.... YBAS to YAYE at 8000' then continuing on in a south-westerly direction at FL250 according to FR24

I was watching it heading back to ASP this arvo and see by the track on FR24 it was in WA.

Great pictures by the way Geoff. Thanks for sharing.
