Back home tonight, lots fun in Tauranga, thought I'd share some final snaps..

R22's at Tauranga..



And this smooth looking mean machine...



Snapped MAT on climb-out..



Heres the aircraft home. ZK-NEO, the same aircraft I arrived on a few days ago, given NEA was aircraft number 1, this must be #15. The latest Air NZ mag says they have 13, so perhaps this baby is brand new with a capital B?



Goodbye Tauranga, goodbye Mt Maunganui




And finally flying home, Ruapehu lifted her veils enough to get a peek at the crater lake...

Wow, awesome shots Jon, especially that last one.

That Q300 is prety darn kool looking aint it.

Are passengers alowed into the flight deck on those smaller aircraft?

If you ask nicely and the captain agrees then you can sit in the jumpseat. You remember my thread don't you?
