As a PPL from the US visiting NZ, I HAD to fly somewhere in NZ. What better than to save a 4 hr drive and fly to Milford Sound! I did a dual 'lesson' flight with Ash, an instructor for Learn To Fly New Zealand out of Wanaka. He took care of the radios because, frankly, I couldn't understand what anyone was saying on the radio nor had any idea what the reporting points were.
They were very accommodating, Ash the instructor was great, and Julie in their office was VERY helpful. www.learntoflynz.com/

What a chilled out instructor!!! So cool! When I visited Milford in 2010, the lady doing the commentary on the bridge of the cruise boat, ask me how far away I thought a particular mountain was. I seriously replied "oh about a kilometre". She politely replied "Try eight!" For those of you who have been there, you will understand.

One weekend during my time in Christchurch, I drove to Akaroa as a spur of the moment thing and ended up spending all day silently looking at the bay and surrounding mountains. The scenery during the drive there and back was spectacular, I remember pulling over just to admire NZ's beauty several times and during one of those stops caught a glimpse of a large bird of prey effortlessly flying near the top of the mountain. Good times.

Such a gorgeous sight to behold, and you were blessed with wonderful weather. Do they even allow flights to land in the more typical cloudy, foggy, rainy weather? This would be a very treacherous place to try and land with instruments only, and the landing strip does not appear until the last moment. Hope to visit the magnificent South Island and explore all its scenic treasures! Thanks for sharing.

It's a Flight Information Service not a control tower. They can't tell you what to do, their job is to keep track of where everyone is and tell you what you need to know. It's a super busy place when there are tourists -- didn't you see all those helicopters?

Interested to know where your 2 cameras were mounted ? or were ypur passngers in the back holding them ? Also how did you get the audio recorded ?
@DanielWhiting
@DanielWhiting 6 лет назад
Thanks for watching! One camera was suction mounted inside on the window next to me in the left seat, and the other was suction cup mounted inside the rear window. Audio is recorded with a cable that sits between the headset audio cable and the plane plugged directly into a gopro. It works great! It's really easy to record good video from inside the cockpit nowadays!

what kind of a connection do you need? I guess you can only do it with a spare empty headset audio? So it was a 4 seater plane you flew then ? Its good too that there is no other noise from the aircraft. It looked like a smooth flight. BTW what was the cost ?

@@kshred3043 It is all a gigantic scam. NZ is one of thecmost isolated countries in the world, and many parts of nearby Asia did not have a problem (Cambodia has zero deaths) due to T-cell immunity. There are no charts anywhere comparing various protocols showing any link between the lockdowns (which are devastating) or the useless masks, reducing "infections" (most of which are false positives on a faulty test). The deaths in 2020 arexLESS than 2019, so it is just a globalist scam to gain control and vaccinate. They just relabeled deathsxfrom other causes. Take vitamin D-3, zinc and C, as that will protect you. Those that get sick can take Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine, which have nearly 100% success rate. The tyrants just want power, and even the WHO has decried lockdowns, which caused more deaths than the virus, as well as financial ruin. Lockdowns were the stupidest thing ever done, and the whole Scamdemic has been a nonstop pack of lies!

"Scamdemic has been a nonstop pack of lies!" Is China also part of this alleged 'Scamdemic' ? "the lockdowns (which are devastating)". NZ enured a 5 week hard lockdown and life is basically back to normal except for international tourism. The economy is booming. Latest unemployment figure is 4.9%. www.nzherald.co.nz/business/jobs-data-shock-unemployment-falls-to-49-per-cent/6NEM3QRJZ4CGWENOBGWTTE6MPM/ I understand that there is some solid evidence on the efficacy of vitamin D.

@@kshred3043 Proven vaccines? There has NEVER been a successful Sars Cov2 vaccine and they have tried for years. Lockdowns caused suicides, drug & alcohol abuse deaths and the neglect of other medical care for serious health risks. The WHO would not be decrying lockdowns if they worked. You can compare states in the US with their various protocols as well as countries all over the world, and there is absolutely NO correlation that any of these things worked. It is all about promoting Big Pharma and gaining globalist control. Check out "little Hitler" Klaus Schwab and his Great Reset and the WEF. People got played - the average age of death was 80, with 2.4 co-morbidities. If this was so lethal, why did the homeless not succumb, or those in jails? It was a complete scam, planned ahead by Gates, the CCP folks (who let the damn thing out of the lab, after trying to engineer it to be more lethal), the Rockefeller Foundation, St Fauci, and other NWO pukes. The masks cause more respiratory infections, and do not stop any virus from traveling. Our DNA is 45% viruses, so they surround us always. The best way we can fight them is with a good immune system, not hiding in a basement with a muzzle on. The tyrants will just keep trying to drag these power moves out over and over - for climate change nonsense, another virus, or any excuse they want to confiscate ate assets and transfer them into the hands of a few elites. The media cannot be relied on for any factual data, as they just promote the globalist agenda, often using the exact same words.
