Our VFR Tour does 53 :P . But the amount of airports doesn't really matter, its the bits in between that count imo. :)

Why did Crazy post? Probably for the same reason I did, to compare things. :)

I doubt it.

But now I'm confused. In the first post you say that you're doing 35 then you say 53.

Typo or change ???

The Heli tour has 35 legs, the NZ VFR tour is 53 legs.

If you're going around NZ, then maybe you stop at the same airport twice
