Now I do like the Snappy HawkerXP B-)

Yes, it's that time of the year again, that explains what went over Banks Peninsula yesterday, but I was tied up at the time so didn't get outside... the view out the front of my place is kind of a poor man's airshow when everything's on it's way to the airshow.

Bloody Brilliant Marty , Hey bring both Jono and Chris around this weekend , we'll just stick to Coffee and a bloody great chat B-)

..... only two weeks away ... I better start cleaning the place up :D Hey, don't do too much - if it's really tidy, I just won't feel at home :lol: Phewy :wacko: .. that saves me a job .. my place is a very organized mess , you request any information and I can go directly to exactly what info you require .... Its one off those Librarian brain functions I seem to have ....

I would have to be a chartered flight wouldn't ? dignitaries or just the rich ... you would not it make any money on a long range sector.

Thanks for sharing Marty. That C17 shot is a beauty!! God I love the look of those beasties, never seem to see them up north, might have to head south for a spotting weekend some time. Anytime big fella ... always have a spare bunk.

Twas the same with me growing up in the Wigram area right from dot one .. Harvards Devons Daks Vampires Strikemasters and Bristol Freighters and even a regular visit from the RAAF Caribou .. part and parcel but unfortunate some dull eye'd dipstick called it a day and killed it .

Since the "Wobbulator' (I will be bark) Returned - arrived this afternoon I had a chance to speak the about these attachment loops with my neighbour Graham, I mention the possibles , he will check it out , he now only dose the paper work for 'Tiger' airlines and the ARBUSTS , Lindstrim you might be right .. one thing he did say and this is an OSH thing , nightly cleaning and engineering checks requires one to be tied to the aircraft , whether they serve two purposes Graham check up tomorrow for us . PS: He Loves my ARBUST/S joke, completely agrees with me and even today the engineer...

Very nice. That j* wn-ns route seemed very popular the other day. There were about 3 coming or going when I check flightradar

I guess what is happening over the last year I guess its better not to invite ... I could imagine the commentary :rolleyes: had they been invited

Good to see Singapore 'Doll a , the Moll' up with a little colour .. something still needs to be done about the nose ... PLASTIC SURGERY would be perfect .. we still have to work on the driving record .. banging into things .. you know :P

Marty I have a DVD 'ICE' about the the LCs and one was about veteran commander and this was in Christchurch and yes it was done going back to 2003/04 season .. Wouldn't mind seeing that Ian ... i saw at least 3 of them heading south today. Great DVD .. it cover the NYAG and the Polar and Antarctic missions, mission and command.

:lol: .... just saw this Ian , sorry for the delay. Have you ever considered a job with the U.N ? ..... Dont :lol: Thanks for looking Skinman :) Dippy for the UN .. no prob's .. tourist entertainment .. I'm on the spot , Prime Minister ... I'll make NZ's Day :D

Chris and Jono and Marty team ... a tri tri tri .. three peoples who do the right thing. ..... COOL B-)

Caught that Canadian jet on the ramp a few months back after the beginning of OP Deep Freeze. .... love the LC photo's

Still the LCs hook into it , I have missed the 580s recent , seem to be less and less lotta privates incoming recent as well.

Not fair, you get all the cool toys down there :drool: Only the summer season .. March April it breaks done then back to the regular ARBUSTS .

Hornets at eye level, eh? You can bet they know all eyes are on them, and will put a little extra swagger into the manoeuvres. Extra "g" too - the live fire box is quite tight (10km across?). Go early, we'll be watching this space!

Lindstrim , i think you must have been in stealth mode ... the boys missed you Im sorry , and so are they. I wont ask when and where you will be next weekend , But Ive told them to be alert B-)
