P.S. the landing was the bumpiest landing I think I have ever incurred.[/quote]
I was flying with RW weather out of Welly today, and the turbulence was incredible, right up to FL200!
During the holidays I flew onboard ZK-NCG (B767-319/ER) from Auckland to Rarotonga, then back onboard ZK-OKB (B777-219/ER)

Nothing
Although I've just found out from dad that somebody will be keeping a brand-new R44 in our hangar, and instead of paying hangarage fees, he'll give dad an hour or two a week to learn to fly it! Hopefully I'll get some great shots if I get to go too!

well although I didn't have "holidays" I have had the last week or so off and in that time (well a week off from flying, only to do more flying) I flew the Navajo, did a fallas rating in a terrorhawk which was cool (cos I hadnt flown one in a few years) untill it put itself into a spin which was interesting (little deathtraps) and I also flew the 185 and another one a few times one on a formation trip from fox to timaru which was fun, - photos maybe to come.
Back to work flying tomorrow I spose....

Flew to Sydney on EK419 777-300ER, from there went to Brisbane on VirginBlue 737-800.
Returned 4 days later to Sydney on a VirginBlue 737-700 and 5 days after that returned to AKL on EK418 777-300ER in business class. Got to use the Sydney Emirates Lounge which was mint and the business cabin was almost empty!

Don't worry I will post although the video doesn't look nearly as bumpy as it was.
Some of you were lucky enough to go overseas these holidays I am quite jealous. But anyway I went on my favourite aircraft so I guess that makes up for it (also getting in the cockpit on the way up and the way back too)
