Them tyres has picked up a lot of mud which made them way bigger !
Actually the perfect machine to land at unmarked ploughed strips at Omaka - he he !

Not bad shots for a phone either

I reckon!! If you hadn't said they were taken on a phone, I wouldn't have guessed. This coming from a semi-serious amateur photographer here.

Was it a birthday present to have it fly in? What a cool idea.

Craig works for SoundsAir doing maintenance of some kind, and Willie has gone to fly a King Air out of Nelson- must be a better lifestyle or something.
