A bird's eye view of the new bridge for State Highway 25A
(Note: Our road authority has announced that Coromandel's SH 25A will reopen 20 December 2023!)
Giant slips in early 2023, due to tropical storm damage, closed this highway. The damage was huge, requiring a 124 m bridge to repair a gap at the top of the range. Join us for a view of progress on the SH 25A bridge build; filmed from ZK-EVE on October 28, 2023.

A shipwreck in Auckland's Hauraki Gulf
มุมมอง 284ปีที่แล้ว
This video describes a flying-over-it/diving-under-it adventure in Auckland's Hauraki Gulf. The center of attention is the wreck of a great sailing ship, the Rewa, that has been there for almost a century. Had an interesting scuba dive on it. Lots of life including Mediterranean fan worms. An aerial survey in a light airplane identified another interesting place: the Rocky Islets. Saw a crayfis...
Landing at Milford Sound New Zealand
มุมมอง 1852 ปีที่แล้ว
On 17 February of 2022 I flew EVE (Tecnam Mk 2 Sierra), my light sport airplane, to Milford Sound via Mt Aspiring. Thankfully I had John Crone, another Sierra pilot in the seat next to me. John has done this before and it was great to have him there! I wouldn't want to do this by myself the first time! You will see why. Ps. I want to say thanks to Lukas Reinker for putting together the crazy op...

มุมมอง 2K4 ปีที่แล้ว
Two Tecnam Sierra light sport aircraft (ZK-EVE piloted by Iain Anderson and Francois Buys and ZK-TZS, piloted by John Crone) crossing New Zealand's Southern Alps- Our plans, to fly south along the west coast from Hokitika to Haast and then to Wanaka, our destination, were scuppered by the weather. Instead we crossed through Arthur's Pass. We saw some spectacular scenery including lenticular wav...
Aerobatics in a CT4
มุมมอง 3.1K4 ปีที่แล้ว
Gene Soudlenkov, a Warbird pilot took me for some aerobatics in a Pacific Aerospace CT4 over the Hauraki Plains on March 20, 2020. CT4s, built by Pacific Aerospace Hamilton have found use as trainers for the RAAF, RNZAF and the Royal Thai Air Force. Quite an experience. This aircraft is special, it was the first CT4 - serial number 0001! Fast and maneuverable, like a sports car in the air. Than...
