Here are a few pics taken last night on a short trip from Tauranga to Mayor Island at dusk, my favourite time to fly. All shots resized but otherwise untouched.

About 10 minutes from takeoff, looking towards the Matakana Island coast, across the upper harbour and towards the Kaimai ranges



Starting descent



Headng towards South East Bay



Touchdown



Cruising into the Bay ... 5 knots within 200m of the shore smile.gif

Nice shots. I love this area!
Try landing and taking off on Mayor in the beech. It CAN be done... gotta be handy with the steering on Take off though!
