Hmm yeah seemed she did when later i bumped into her just under the carpark .. chap getting picked up by his mother .. he was older than meso Mum was not a cherry .. in comes Lady Hitler .. move that car .. Attitude i guess they are trained to do , look on her face when i said i'm a terrorist .... no tourist
I no many in the security industry but there are many out there were give them a uniform and the power go's to their head .
So true - Power in excess of intellectual capacity = problems.
Grabbed the historical 'DING DONG" for me door bell , I sold me flat and upgrade from the 'Man Cave" as Marty call's it to this .. and about to move in , you can see were my flight simulator is going to be , i'll change the fence to make it a little more inviting and just by the yellow fuse mount my little art workshop come studio with a Mars door ... may have to spend a week mowing the lawns ... previous left it as scruffy as ell .. call it my Boeing cave
After the Millions spent I'm very disappointed with who ever planned and designed the airport .. Christchurch was famous in New Zealand for the vistas views and access to the weekend out but today now shut down and gone .. Gone the roof top spotting and gone the the freedom to look . Sure a Dash8 would be happy here .
Nice Pics Ian - is that the Alternative now to the old rooftop ob's area?
Sean , not sure what it is these days .. they used to have viewing from every position and i even recall fence lines no higher than your waist ..... today you can see damn diddley swat due to design numb nuts .... airports are designed to bring tourism .... some say what its there business cos its company - funny the Europeans follow the practice of rebuilding airports with the freedom to move and view ... the airport today has lost that , to look out over the ramp air-side - guess they want to look after the population just like sheep and the sheep follow.

Cold but Warm .. half a 'K' in a famous N/W day - that engine nacelle is a 737 fuse
Great work Ian , but it sure isnt what it used to be , which is interesting when the manager said on radio the other day , that 65% of their income comes from NON FLYING visitors .
And you really dont want to wind up those avsec / parking people , and dont mention the "T" or "B" word for gods sake .
Glad your feeling good enough to get out there .... good on ya
Have to head out there now , catch you later.

Now that is a very interesting percentage and that very book by Tony Phillips pointed that out ... now from most postings domestic and international favour viewing platforms ... a new building and structure but no roof top access ! ... in the history dating back to original build how many people used the outside stairs opposite the International into the early/mid 1990 sSplitpin wrote:QUOTE (Splitpin @ Aug 11 2013,4:03 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>And you really dont want to wind up those avsec / parking people , and dont mention the "T" or "B" word for gods sake .

Never those words but would have love to stick a Bomb up her jacksie !
Terror , I was bloody Bombed out half way back down Avonhead Road ... thought to myself .. "You bloody dumb prick" why the hell did i do this ! ....sore as i am its the best thing to keep doing i guess .
I went out on the second day ... Glutton for punishment ! or just plane

Got feed up, not so much locked away - seen two brilliant days ... don't have a communicator but i do plan each mission and be bloody careful - the exercise cant kill but lack off it will ..... ON YA BIKE!
Arr the days without fences and peoples respected the property ... just a sign of the times .. but lucky Czech jets are built for the harsh climate and it sits outside .
Nice shots ..... good camera ayeIan Warren wrote:QUOTE (Ian Warren @ Aug 11 2013,6:34 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Got feed up, not so much locked away - seen two brilliant days ... don't have a communicator but i do plan each mission and be bloody careful - the exercise cant kill but lack off it will .....

Your riding ?? we really do need to get the NZFF (South) forum van up and running , i reckon a second hand (large ) camper would be great , with a deck up on the roof.
