our chopper R44 VT-ZTZ

take-off with my friend and boss Nils as our pilot

starting to feel the first two g-forces flying a tight turn

the main olympic "telstra stadium"

me with fancy radio control

approaching downtown

nice view from the western suburbs to the skyscrapers of sydney

the harbour bridge

you can walk to the top and back....

...but flying above is just much better!!!

the opera house next to the botanic garden 

at the centre of the picture is Circular Quay, main ferry station of sydney

. . . .

if you take a closer look you can see the shark net securing the swimming area

nice little privatly owned island, would'nt mind to stay there for a while!!

one of the northern beaches, sometimes very hard to access because of the steep cliffs
