Remarks: On finals to Wellington International. ATIS reported extreme turbulence and windshear. Not the best day to be in a small Cessna 208!
Remarks: Runway 16. At just under 2000m, Wellington sure has a short runway-a typical 737 take-off will use 1/2 of the runway and often landings use 3/4. Not much room for error!
Remarks: The controller vectors us around on approach to Brisbane to "slot us in"
Remarks: Waiting for us to land...
Remarks: Final approach as the F/O slews her down to the ground
Remarks: Ending the 90 degree turn onto a short final into NZCH on xmas day.
Here's to the crews who tirelessly operate even on public holidays!
Remarks: After a seemingly short flight ending 25 hours of long haul flying!
Remarks: An unusual left-hand turn to track northwards after take-off
Remarks: The two black levers controlling the two powerful engines that defy gravity and pushing us along the 1200nm journey to Brisbane!
Remarks: Finals to runway 02. Great xmas!
Remarks: The two codeshare flights, each bound for Bangkok. Let the race begin!
Remarks: Climbing away after what seemed a really long take-off run for an A320
