Thank you so much! I have quite a lot of whimsy in my heart, and I worry that too much is leaking out into my videos, but it seems that others like it too…
Great flight review.. especially having the multiple active parts of the screen.. looks very Professional but with your usual bit if humor thrown in. Great. Thanks for including my footage in and great synchronisation.. I know you put a lot of work into these and it shows.
Thank you! It did take a wee while to get them synchronised, and to get the colour balance consistent, but I think it was worth it - thanks again for being so generous with releasing your footage and for inviting me to your streams, it’s a great way to spend half a day!
I am more than satisfied with this months installment of my monthly-ish dose of Supersonic Kiwi, amazing to see you being adventurous and getting a green lolly!
Hahaha - yes, I really went outside my comfort zone with that decision. It turns out the green ones are actually pretty good! And I’m pleased you enjoyed this instalment, especially given that I’ve reviewed the same route on the same aircraft type before…
I’ve only very recently found your channel but can I just say your I absolutely love your review style, you communicate in a very clear and cheery way and I really enjoy your reviews 👍
Spent 2 years in Wellington 20 years ago for University, never been back since. This amazing video got me thinking, maybe its time to come back to say hi
The city wasn’t looking it’s best during this arrival, but as you’ll know it’s not an abnormal state of affairs for there to be low cloud and a bit of a breeze, haha!
Great review, never experienced doing a circle around to gain altitude to try and avoid the weather before - quite an experience by the looks! Looks like same cookie on all air NZ domestic flights had the exact same options on both my flights over there recently lol
Thanks again! The CookieTime Chocolate Chunk Cookie has become a bit of a staple. There was a period where they would have different cookie flavours, and apparently they had complaints, so have gone back to the original. Sometimes there will be a second option (crisps, corn chips, popcorn) but there’s almost always the Chocolate Chunk Cookie.
I currently only have one international booked with Air New Zealand, in November. I have flights with Qantas, Emirates, and Austrian between now and then though. I do have old footage from international Air New Zealand flights that I could make.
I don’t know how I wasn’t subbed to you already, I’m pretty sure I’ve watched all of your videos! Thanks for the kind words, and if you get here I’d love to do a flight together!
Fantastic video! New sub! Keep up your great work and passions despite the challenges you may be facing, with loads of persistence, enjoyments and optimism! I hope things go smoothly and well for you and keep up your great spirits too! I am so grateful to be supporting you and seeing your progress getting better and better! 🙂
To do that I’d have to go to the loo, and to be completely honest they’re not awesome on the little Q300s… but it is a legitimate request, so I guess I have to, right? That’s how that works, isn’t it?
Thanks Rod. It was a pretty ordinary approach and landing, that’s for sure - at least we didn’t go round, although that would have added some additional excitement to the review!
Amazing Video 😊, I love Tauranga Airport, So it's 1 Hour and 15 Minutes trip I think they should use ATR 72 but anyways great video can't wait till the Next Video, another suggestion from me is Orginair or Golden Bay Air 😊 Xavier
I love TRG as well, it’s super easy, and there’s often interesting aircraft there - double win! There are some ATRs scheduled into TRG, but I guess the demand isn’t there to have them on all the time. Personally I’d rather they had two Q300 flights over one ATR flight, as i can pick a time that works better for me. I was actually looking at Golden Bay’s schedule the other day, but I couldn’t quite make it work. I definitely intend to make an OriginAir at some point, but I don’t have anything booked yet. I do have a half finished video from a PCN-WLG flight I did a few years ago on Sounds Air - I’ve already released one of the flight the other way. Maybe I should finish that…
Only three teal tails left! I was super lucky to get 3 snacks - last night I didn’t even get a lolly!! I know it’s not a birthright to get a lolly, but I do have a certain level of expectation, haha.
@@InvercargillAviation thanks, I’m soooo close now! I have a bit of a celebration / thank you video almost all set to go, so I’m pretty excited about it!
That was AMAZING! I didn’t know they were painting the last of the Q300s, I think I have mixed feelings about it. It looked like it was a great flight, 2D provides some great views of a little bit of everything. 😁
Thank you! Yes, I always felt the teal tails were a wee nod to the past, and added a small touch of personality. I’m fairly committed to row 2 or 3 on the Q300s - as you say, you can see a bit of everything. The only other option is at the back, but I find that a bit noisier and the engine exhaust puts a bit of distortion in the footage.
Going from the Q300 to a 787 (assuming you’re going via Huston with Air New Zealand) will be a significant change! Actually, maybe you’ll end up on one of the 777s they’ve leased from Cathay, now that would be an interesting experience…
I love all the Q300s, but especially the teal tails. If I’m completely honest NEQ is my personal favourite. So many awesome old warbirds at NZTG, such a great spotting airport!
Thanks! Yes, I found the Wellington Flights Live channel from a random Google search, and found my flight by scrubbing through the footage, then messaged to ask for permission. Kevin was awesome about using it, and even popped the high res footage in a drop box for me. And then invited me to hang out with him on his stream, so it turned out really great on multiple fronts!
Thanks! It’s a gorgeous looking aircraft, I can completely understand why you’d have a painting of it. Only 100 to go!! I have a celebration video almost ready to go - it’s something a little bit different, but hopefully you’ll find it fun!
What can i say? They just get better and better! Very entertaining AND informative 😊 #DashyNest #Wellington #Tauranga #AirNewZealand

Oooo another amazing trip report! Thanks for the content supersonic kiwi

Thank you so much! I feel like they’re getting better, although they take yonks to make, so it’s great to hear that they’re worth all the effort!
For sure!

Awesome video as always :D
Just curious whether you're, planning any overseas flights with Air NZ?
Keep doing what you're doing!
I currently only have one international booked with Air New Zealand, in November. I have flights with Qantas, Emirates, and Austrian between now and then though. I do have old footage from international Air New Zealand flights that I could make.
Oh, and thanks!
@@SupersonicKiwi If you have time to make them, then that would be great! If not, I'm happy to wait for any upcoming videos :)
They all take time, it’s just about prioritising which to make and which to abandon! Maybe I’ll do one and see how it tracks!
@@SupersonicKiwi Thanks so much, man
Awesome trip report! The clouds look just awesome on departure... Nice!
Thanks! It was a weird weather day, 4 seasons in one flight, but it did make for some unique views.
Thanks for another great video! If I could have liked it more than once, I would have =D
Thanks!
Great video! :) The scenery looks great down there, NZ is on my to-do list.
I don’t know how I wasn’t subbed to you already, I’m pretty sure I’ve watched all of your videos! Thanks for the kind words, and if you get here I’d love to do a flight together!

Thanks so much, I really appreciate your kind words, and I hope I can keep producing videos that you enjoy watching!
Excellent video! I love all the extra features you show. Keep up the good work.
Thank you!
I do request if you could do a lavatory review if possible! Otherwise great video!
To do that I’d have to go to the loo, and to be completely honest they’re not awesome on the little Q300s… but it is a legitimate request, so I guess I have to, right? That’s how that works, isn’t it?
@@SupersonicKiwi No pressure at all! Just a bit of feedback and everything is pretty much perfect otherwise!
Another good review. 1000m lift in a LH orbit is pretty good climb rate. Shame AirNZ are ditching the teal. Rubbish day in WLG so situation normal 😂
Thanks Rod. It was a pretty ordinary approach and landing, that’s for sure - at least we didn’t go round, although that would have added some additional excitement to the review!
great video! still have plans to fly on the Q300 should be fun!
Thank you! I think they’re great wee planes and reckon you’ll love it!
@@SupersonicKiwi I'll be going to fly into Gisborne on one this year.
Air New Zealand seem to be committed to them for the foreseeable future.
Amazing Video 😊, I love Tauranga Airport, So it's 1 Hour and 15 Minutes trip I think they should use ATR 72 but anyways great video can't wait till the Next Video, another suggestion from me is Orginair or Golden Bay Air 😊

Love the video I am going to miss the teal livery on air new Zealand Q300 but wow 3 snacks sometimes you don't even get snacks😊😊😊
Only three teal tails left! I was super lucky to get 3 snacks - last night I didn’t even get a lolly!! I know it’s not a birthright to get a lolly, but I do have a certain level of expectation, haha.
Hello! I was wondering if u have made a video about invercargill before!😊
Sadly I haven’t - I’ve never flown to or from Invercargill!
Oh ok!, Hope you have a wonderful day!😊
I hope you hit 1K!😊
@@InvercargillAviation thanks, I’m soooo close now! I have a bit of a celebration / thank you video almost all set to go, so I’m pretty excited about it!

I’m flying to Dallas Texas a few days before Christmas and I’m flying to Auckland on a q300 and I’m very excited to be flying on my first turboprop 😁
Going from the Q300 to a 787 (assuming you’re going via Huston with Air New Zealand) will be a significant change! Actually, maybe you’ll end up on one of the 777s they’ve leased from Cathay, now that would be an interesting experience…
@@SupersonicKiwi I’m flying to LAX with air Nz on a 777 then to Dallas on 737 max 9
Amazing mate
Thanks!
Nice
Thanks!
@@newZealandplanes that’s so incredibly kind of you, thank you!
Amazing review, always a highlight of my day when you upload :)
Oh, wow, thanks! I’m pleased this one lived up to expectations!
What will you do in Wellington?
I live in Wellington, so I was returning home.
Nice review and nice T-6 Harvard spot too 👍
Thanks! I felt very lucky to see it - from what I can tell it lives at Ardmore.
Yay! New video!
Woohoo!
Nice
Thanks!
AMAZING CONTENT LOVELY TO SEE MY LOCOL AIRPORT TAURNGA BACK ON THE CHANNEL! ALSO ON MY FAV MEMBER OF AIR NZ "ZK-NEO"
I love all the Q300s, but especially the teal tails. If I’m completely honest NEQ is my personal favourite. So many awesome old warbirds at NZTG, such a great spotting airport!
@@SupersonicKiwi im gonna miss the teal tails lol
Great video! And cool how you had two landing views

Lets go another great review! fun fact, I actually have a painting of the Exact T-6 Harvard in the intro. Road to 1000 subs!!
Thanks! It’s a gorgeous looking aircraft, I can completely understand why you’d have a painting of it. Only 100 to go!! I have a celebration video almost ready to go - it’s something a little bit different, but hopefully you’ll find it fun!
I've been on that plane Auckland to Whangarei
Awesome! It won’t have a teal tail for much longer, so next time you fly in it it will probably look like all of the others :(
Congrats on 900 subscribers!!!
Thanks! 100 to go until I become a real TH-camr, haha.
Also that day was the same day I went on a flight from Wellington to Dunedin on ZK-OXJ that departed around 3:20PM
Congratulations on 900 subscribers
On the countdown to 1,000! I have a celebration video almost ready to go!
Awesome flight report
Thanks!
Another great review
Thank you!
