G'day christiand,

I work for an instrument company (pressure, flow, etc) and the WMC Fertiliser plant is a big customer. Looking at new applications and providing support. It's about a 3 hour drive by 4WD or a 30 minute plane trip from Mt Isa. I took the light plane option this time.

Cheers
Peter

where are the photos ?

Postby christiand on Thu Jan 27, 2005 10:32 pm

show us some photos next time if practical.
I suspect we might get to see things we (I) normally don't get to see.

Hmm good to see someone else had to work.

Thommo double time on time for the first 10 then triple for the last 2.

It was work the trouble.

I took the D70 with me and took some shots from the plane, if there's anything decent I'll put some up when I get back home. They won't let camera's, phones or other electronic gizmos on the plant - too many things (hydrogen, ammonia) that can go BANG :!:
