Although it was disappointing not have the opportunity to undertake the aerial photography required at Casey another attempt at an earlier time next season would most likely prove more productive. Trying to capture aerial photography during the 1 or 2 day visits at this time of year is very dependant on having good weather conditions, if conditions are good a lot can be achieved, but as was the case on this voyage bad weather prevailed and very little was accomplished.

As no aerial photography was attempt the video drift sight attachment made for the aerial camera system could not be tested and therefore no recommendations about its suitability for use in camera system can be made.
