Air New Zealand are running an online compeition where you can win a return Q300 journey on Saturday 26 January 2008 on a special Air New Zealand service between any two of the 26 domestic airports and you can invite 40 friends to come with you!

I've set up a flight between Auckland and Wellington for a day's spotting for NZFF members, to register yourself for one of the 40 seats, simply go to www.grabaseat.co.nz and enter these details:
Plane Name: NZFF
Password: boosh1

Or click on this link: https://www.grabaplane.co.nz/Join.aspx? ... =12BZA5A2O

Lets hope we win! :D

Well, I've signed up as well, I suppose I'll have to arrange traveling from ROT-AKL, then WLG-ROT if we win, but would be awesome if we do. :D

I'm not sure how I'd get there and back, I'm sure I could find a way. I'll register, wouldn't want to miss this.

Thanks

Anyone in Christchurch (aka Jimmy etc)...

Plane: Pacsim 556
password: pacsim

Only 9 seats left to fill!

NZCH-NZRO return - currently filled with staff from Pacific Simulators. But, yeah, we don't have 40 staff. So feel free to sign up on our plane too. Simmers most welcome. I'll even give you a tour of the factory and a flight on one of our sims on the production line if there is one flyable.

Ah, the flight is return, so that makes it a bit easier. :)

Well, it'll be good if either planeload wins the prize, I'll enjoy meeting you guys if you do end up here. :D

Don't you automatically get a return flight?

Isn't it evident?? Boeing are my favourite aircraft.

P.S. that's is my real birthday but I wish to keep my real age secret to keep you all pondering.
