Overseas viewers note: Noel never left Queensland. He is still in one small corner of Australia; he still has the Northern Territory and the huge expanse of Western Australia between him and the West Coast. Also on regional flights people in hi viz clothing onboard means they are mining personnel travelling around. On some flights everyone will be wearing it.

Also, it's pronounced 'Mount eye-za' for anyone that doesn't know haha. The 1st leg destination, Toowoomba Wellcamp Airport, is also home to the Qantas Academy. A fairly large state-of-the-art facility on the opposite side of the runway from the terminal complete with it's own living accommodation for students. I live in Queensland and it's very weird seeing Noel visit these small, remote towns here.

@electro_sykes Год назад

What about Brisbane & Melbourne? As a local, I am disappointed that not many Overseas tourists know that there is more to Australia than just Sydney. Also, although there is decent public transport in the Capital Cities (aka Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane), If you are wanting to travel on day trips or go on a road trip through regional areas (which is good for Regional Tourism), then may I recommend getting a Hire car. You don't have to, but it can make getting around a little easier in such a vast country like Australia. Trust me, there is more Australia has to offer behind the curtain. Also, if you come across something that may look interesting, check it out. This is because there are actually a lot of great attractions, local tourism companies and small businesses that aren't well known or advertised yet some of them offer great once-in-a-lifetime experiences. I would recommend you visit Sydney, Melbourne & Brisbane during your Aussie holiday, but also check out the raw natural beauty that regional Australia has to offer. By the way, you must check out Hamilton Island and the Whitsundays, it is paradise.

A little quirk of the Saab 340 is that the steering bypass pin travels with the aircraft. After pushback is complete, the ground handler rolls up the pin, its flag, and the headset connection and passes it to the pilot through a little hole below their window. You can see the hole is open at 8.33.

Thanks Noel. My family used to live on an airport in Cobar, outback NSW. Rex used to land there as well, as well as RFDS, the airforce at times, and a variety of other planes and helicopters. The runway would have to be patrolled before arriving planes to ensure kangaroos were off the runway, which despite a pretty tall fence around the airfield, they would still make their way in. Quite often the pilots would land but wouldn't have phone service to phone for a taxi to town. We would often drive the pilots into town and given them a bit of a tour along the way. The outback is such an awesome part of Australia to explore. So many little towns with airstrips. So glad you shared this. Hopefully people feel encouraged to venture out and enjoy this great part of Australia. Safe travels mate.

We had 4 stops total and thankfully it was a gloriously crystal blue sky day until we hit the Bering Sea. Mind you, this was in February of 1991. Upon breaking through the clouds at about 500 feet the pilots had to buzz the runway 3 times to get the white foxes off of it.

It is one of my favourite destinations. I have heard of a couple of those small towns like Toowomba, I have met someone from there once and places like Mount Isa, I have heard through Aussie TV programs like MKR which is a cooking TV show and two lovely cooks came from Mount Isa. Shoutout to Jac and Shaz. Others town names I have heard through my relatives and through my past visits. I would honestly love to get the chance to visit those small towns one day. There is a lot to see and do in Australia which is why I guess it is one of the many many reasons I love Australia so much and why I would go there again and again if I can. Enjoy your visit to Cairns and catch up with you on the next one.

Dear Lord Philips. I'm an avid fan of your videos and I think this was the best one yet And thanks for the heads-up about Established Titles, I could use some respect around here and always wanted a tree in Scotland.

Noel, my hat is off to you for enduring this for our viewing pleasure. I've got many hours on SAAB 340Bs flying from/to Killeen, Texas to/from either Houston (Continental Express) or Dallas (American Eagle) for business trips. Either connection was an hour flight to or from the main hubs. Each time, I was happy to get off of the thing as we'd always have turbulence and the SAAB 340B in turbulence is like riding on steel roller skates. I was very happy when those routes switched to the Embraer 135/145 regional jets. It cut the routes to a half hour and the turbulence was less pronounced at the higher altitudes. Toward the end of the 340s use on those routes, they were getting pretty beat up. One time I got put in a seat that wouldn't lock in the upright position. Ugh.

Great vlog as always! I agree with you. The small branch routes are what binds everything together. A happy detour! I guess you have done the UA152 HNL-GUM via via. The difference between the A and B version of the 340 is that the B has the WC at the back of the cabin. I love the 340. Only flown it twice. OSL-VDB-OSL. OSL-VDB I was the only pax! Many times in small town USA the same thing, one engine running. Keep up the good work. Be safe! A friend of mine flew what could be/ have been one of the longest non stop 340 routes in Europe. DAT flew EBJ-KUN. It was over 3h one way.
