Flight 19 : Port Moresby to Cairns, Australia

Date: Sunday November 16, 2008
Departure: 04:30 local time PNG
Routing: Southwest to Weipa, then south to Cairns
Aircraft: Pacific Airways Island livery

Altitude: 4,000 feet (briefly to 6,000 coming into Cairns)

Miles: 733 total
Arrival Stats: Arrived at 07:15, 267 mph

Notes: Very early Sunday I fired up the "little Dash" and headed south, back onto my "planned" RTW route. (Not that I'm all planned out, but I hadn't thought I'd see Port Moresby ...)
There are some surprising mountains along eastern Australia but once over those there was some low-lying fog this morning. That's what I get for flying early I guess.
