Mine aren't the same quality as Gavin's - but I'll show them any way.
It was nice to meet you Gavin. Good to put a face to the photos

One of our crewies all wrapped up and ready to go. -Yes it is very cold, flying with the doors open.

We didnt bother de-icing the main rotor. Just crank them up and the ice falls off and melts from the air friction. You can see the ice comming off in this photo.

7 Just added another photo abit of a cold start - ice on the windscreen


I got home today. Just as the weather was turning to poo. Dip Flat in the Wairau Valley is a beautiful area. No snow this year. (last year we got snowed in)
Its good to be back home in my own bed and nice and warm again.

Hope you like the photos

Was great to meet you as well Trev.
Pushed for time as usual as the newspaper guys wanted to interview me as well after the flight so they must be getting short of stuff if they have made it as far as me.
The weather has turned a bit but I dont think the guys will get the same conditions as last year.

It was great to meet up with the guys again, have loads of photos to go through and have started wtiting my story so had better get back to it.
