Landing Gear

A Boeing wheelset on the underside of the Jumbo 747-200 at the QANTAS Founders Museum. That's a lot of rubber.

QANTAS Longreach

The obligatory photo stop in Longreach at the QANTAS Founders Museum. The iOS panoramic photo stitcher did not deal well with the straight angled and jagged edges in combination. However, it still gives a beautiful view of a Boeing 747.

The QANTAS Founders Museum in Longreach now has a roof over the planes to help preserve their life a little longer.
