Join Jack and Tim as they go for a brief fly around the station to check out the rainfall, Last night we had 47MM which is very welcome. Join their discussions about the effect it will have on the country and the feral animals.

That was the most infomative overview to date. I found it informative that you are thinking in terms of swales, I am sure you want to do survey so you can do long swales across the slope. Without the survey have you considered the half moon scalops the africans dig by hand .

That was fascinating to watch. The professional constant safety chat between the two of you and the knowledge as guardians of the land and how the water levels will affect different areas is really interesting. One thing that really comes across when you take us up flying is the huge distances between your boundaries of the station. Out of interest, I live on the “Isle of Wight” on the South Coast of England and it would be very interesting to see how many times the “Isle of Wight” would fit into your boundaries?

A great video Jack. The wing camera quality is really good. Looking forwar to a 360 one! I could make out the water points easily at the low level you very flying at. I managed to mostly track your flight on Google Earth and spot the water points I've previosuly found. Just got to work out the site names! Consider adding the phone app GPS nav data that shows 6-pack instruments on the bottom of your videos. That way people will have a better idea of which way you're flying and what height you're at, at any point in the video. As a pilot myself, I could figure out your directions and locations, but most people won't have a clue. Hope that helps. Cheers from slightly more mountainous NZL, David.🐄🐪🦘🥩🛩🌧🌧🌧

Awesome episode, I know you don't comment much on these posts so all good 👍👍👍 I did get a little excited when you and the olde boy was talking about cutting in water swales, best method to introduce water into dry land to absorb for future growth, it's just time and money, but how good would it be greening your land. The only downer would be the ferrals taking advantage of the new green growth 🤔🤔🤔I did notice the green flow from the water run off in the streams showing established trees and a few minor tree / shrubs, does all the new self sown trees get consumed by the stock and ferrals ???

Excellent content as usual. I'm guessing this sort of rain will keep pressure off your yards for a while as camels can access surface water. Also just wondering is a helicopter part of your plans on the station.? Might help with the off camel cull. 🐫
@v1rotait233 ай бұрын
Choppers are very expensive to run so Jack brings one in for a specified job when required. Whereas the little airplanes they have are cheap to run and get around, out to the furthest water points if it's going to be a short maintenance job. For a water point camel shoot they'll drive out after checking the cameras...

@alexbolt12273 ай бұрын
I am just a desk chair pilot myself and it might just be the camera view but I had the feeling that you were flying quite low at times. If your engine failed in an untimely manor it would seem hard to find a suitable roadstrip in time for a safe landing without trees and bushes in the way. Anyway beautiful video!
