New fan here. I'd heard of them during the 80s and 90s, but wasn't paying attention. Watched a show on the Paladia Channel about them last year and was amazed, then downloaded all their stuff.
 
Passing abeam Hat Yai airport (VTSS). Last check point before our destination.
 
Down safe at WMKA. Somebody said there was a leaky Gee Bee and an abandoned S-43B, with free tools, gauges, and Celine Dion records. Looks like I got here too late.

Oh heck with it. I'm going to Singapore. Met a girl in Singapore once. She was really pretty. Anybody ever been to Singapore? Yeah, exactly... Maybe she's still there.
 
A beautiful early morning over the Malaysian peninsula. Last time we held this event, I landed at the wrong airport in the vicinity of Singapore. It's easy to do. I shall endeavor to pay attention this time.
 
Singapore.

A most enjoyable and exciting flight. Flew "nap-oh-the earth" for some time, dodging thunderstorms, rain showers, and tree covered hills. Got some video. Might post it if I get motivated.
 
Oops. Forgot to declare that I'm headed for Jakarta. I'll get some kodaks of what's left of Krakatoa.
 
There it is, Krakatoa. Only now I used up a lot of gas sight seeing. Down to a quarter tank over the Sunda Straight...
 
Made it to Jakarta on fumes! Ok, that's not true. Had a few gallons left. But it sounds exciting.

Another beautiful morning over Indonesia. Now where did I stash that thermos full of coffee?
