The problem with paradise is, no good aerial data. If I was running a survey plane I would park it on the beach as well and go for a swim instead! Still plenty interesting things to see along the way.

Tanna island departure
I did a fly by of the Volcano but it was barely visible in the heavy fog / clouds to the ground. From what I saw it was comprised data anyway, clouds on the sat images.
Erromango Island, clear weather this way
Landing at Isangel Airport, actually it’s Port Narvin on Erromango
Port Vila, the capital of Vanuatu
Sadly the aerial data is at its worst here
Port Villa International Airport, missing in game
A couple stripes are visible
Port Villa behind Ifira Island on the left
Port Villa is located on Efate Island
A peak into the Vanuatu National Museum
Efate island is also where Surivor Vanuatu was filmed
The camps were at either side of my wing tips
Lopevi Vulcano (4,636ft)
Those huge cracks are probably not supposed to be there, they go quite far down
Ambrym Vulcano, the one corner not hidden under clouds
No elevation data, hence the flat look
Lamap Airport on Malekula Island
Million dollar point at Luganville on of Espiritu Santo, unfortunately not visible in game
Santo-Pekoa International Airport close to the dive site is missing
This is where the SS President Coolidge sank, now regarded as one of the best wreck diving sites
Sola Airport on Vanua Lava Island
Home of land diving, possibly where bungee jumping came from
Leaving Vanuatu behind, Pentecost and Ambea out the rear window
Setting in for a long flight to Fiji
The weather keeps things interesting
The sun is starting to get lower as well
This is going to be a great sunset
Rotuma island in sight, with boosted exposure
The airport is where the two distant lights are
Safe landing, the lightning helped find the landing strip
Should be a very nice place to wake up in
On to Fiji tomorrow, then crossing the date line, traveling back into the past.
