In the end, it was decided not to head off, as it would have been a rough trip, and we would have been pushed to get there before the airspace closed and home again before dark.
Darn! Check out the Classic Fighters website for reasons as to why I would have loved to have been there.
We are not without hope however! Although tomorrow's weather is far from ideal at Wellington, I am on a standby list to get a ride over with Vincent Aviation in their DHC-8. This would be ideal as it will be IFR [Instrument Flight Rules], and we can come back in the dark. Here's hoping!
Anyway, one small visitor I photographed today was this Cessna 182T, ZK-MAR, registered to a Rotorua address, taxiing for departure this morning.

Gidday mate. Yeah, OK, but yesterday was practice day, right?
I hope I get over. Do you want to email me your phone number in case I get over there?
Cheers.
