The scenic R14-Y Approach @YBHM

Today I operated Velocity 1495 in the B738 from YBBN to YBHM, visiting the awesome little 3D airport on Hamilton Island for the first time.

If you’re coming into land from the south for RWY 14, I suggest using the R14-Y approach with the Ovron transition. Really nice visuals over the airport & into the tight turn over terrain before shooting a short final.

Here’s some shots 🫡
