woopz my bad. now I look at the title again and yeah. It curtainly makes a nice sound. I had it come land at the carpark out at sunset beach - port waikato when i was working at there as a surf lifeguard and it curtainly go alot of people down to the beach! Iv got some pictures the pilot sent me. I might upload them when I get home.

iv got a couple of those shirts they are quite nice. they sell them up at auckland too.
