As promised, a friend of mine Geoff Cooper, who is an Air New Zealand B777 pilot has delivered once again.

This time, he has sent me another CD full of photographs taken from the cockpit of ANZ's newest aircraft.

I have selected a few of my favourites to share with you here: (12 photos, 2.50mb)

1. Approach to Kansai International (Osaka, Japan). This airport is built on a man-made island, and I have previously flown here on an ANZ 767, so I personally requested Geoff to get some photos when he next flew to RJBB.

Wow, the cockpit looks so modern! I recently had a peek into a Qantas 737-400, it was pretty old compared to the ANZ 777.

Great pictures. It's a fantastic approach into Kansai, and a great airport as well. The trains that take you between terminals are fun to ride on as well :lol:
