It's the Norwegian freighter (car carrier) MV Saint Petersburg, the first ship to arrive in the search area.
Compare to the real picture:
With the visibility improved, we climb up to 5000ft and continue our search.
However, no other sightings besides the St. Petersburg are made - just miles of endless ocean, far away from any land.
After almost 3 hours in the search area, we start getting low on fuel, so I get all our engines back online, climb over the clouds, and head back to Perth at almost 30000ft.
Soon, the sun begins setting already.
Sunset over a very remote part of the ocean.
We make our way back towards Perth in the dark.
Lined up on final to Pearce, more than 11 hours after we took off from the same runway.
Taxiing back to the ramp...
And that completes our flight for today. The real crew would be ready to fly againt he next morning.
Hope you enjoyed it!
