Captain Sim Legendary 707 in AWACS Trim, descending through a Thunderstorm on the way into Christchurch.

We actually had an A3 over Christchurch in the early 80s , did a buzz of Wiggy and ramped its self on the apron next to the US Navy aircraft for the night at Harewood .. the weather then was far better biggrin.gif
