Hey Guys,

Wet weekend here in CHC so a good chance to do a few flights. Jetstar are due to take over the Qantas domestic operations here in New Zealand so I wanted to fly one of the routes that will not be replaced, Christchurch to Rotorua. Pretty fun flight, crappy wx out of CHC and a nice short runway at ROT. Onto the shots...

Company B734 off to AKL

ANZ B733 has liftoff

Our turn, SQ B772 in the background as well

Going to be a few bumps on departure today folks

It's only virtual fuel, who needs to de-rate thrust!

After a 180, it's time to head North

Keep on climbing

And descent time, the central North Island of New Zealand is quite volcanic

Approaching in over Rotorua

Final approach

Touchdown, I'll take it!

Rollout and back track to the apron

Parked up with a Q300 landing behind

OK, that's it for this series - hope you all enjoyed!

This series and the Beech series as well are very nice! Cheers

Nice shots there

Its a shame about Rotorua losing its sole jet service.
Also what model and paint are you using?

Ah Rotorua... I live there.
Cool screenshots Muppet

I quite like the final approach to ROT ones.

Nice! Wow, look at the trim setting when you were flaring/touch down!

Looks like you have a very similar sim set up to me Muppet- just goes to show that FS9 still has some life in it. Top shots
