Also cat II/III ILS is unserviceable at NZAA till June 8th. I was put into a minivan for my trip up to Whangaeri this morning after my Eagle flight was cancelled.

Got a nice surprise at the Aero Club yesterday, did the double take confusing the A330 for a 777 wink.gif Think a JQ A320 was diverted also, arrived and departed with the other two.

Christchurch Airport remains open.
The temperature here has risen to minus-3.5 degrees.
