Classic British Flight Sim

No it is NZAR...Ardmore near Aukland

Of course,I knew that all the time Peter.I just didn't want show off EricT

OK so what is it about JAN fifth th.

Inquiring minds want to know.

Well it was the only clue that I gave you...the date ruled out anywhere in the Northern Hemisphere because it is Winter here and the picture does not look like Winter...Ian saw straight away that it had to be in the Southern Hemisphere where it is Spring

I don't think that was too obtuse!

Anyway, I had a very pleasing flight over Auckland and was extremely impressed with the scenery...I made some recordings and will use them tomorrow to get some screenshots or maybe even make a short video

Elementary, my dear Watson (for a BOAC boy who had to consider every trip whether to pack t-shirts and speedos or mukluks and a furry anorak in his Globetrotter).

I also deduce that, as Auckland is on North Island, you've also blown the remainder of your winter fuel allowance on FTX NZNI as well as South Island

You old devil! I look forward to seeing the pictures!

Thanks for that, Peter. I guess I was expecting a story behind the display,.. of one in your RAF adventures.

No, that was "Life Part 1", Fighter Pilot...My flights in NZ were in "Life Part 2", Airline Pilot, while I was on holiday and flying with the Aero Club at Ardmore. I have gone back there in P3D to relive some of that private flying in a country that is very beautiful to fly over. Of course I can not replicate the hunting and fishing but I can try to fly over places that I visited

Peter..... you K I L L E D their animals!?

Well my deer stalking was not sufficiently expert to get close enough for a fair shot, but my friends that I was with were more successful and I enjoyed sharing their venison...I do eat meat!

BTW...I was much more successful with the fishing and caught a lot of Trout, which we all enjoyed eating.
