TAURANGA AIRSHOW

Saturday 28th January

It was a bit of a late decision but I made it to the Saturday of the Tauranga Airshow and it was pretty awesome.  A bit of a taster for Warbirds Over Wanaka (assuming weather conducive to getting the club's planes down there).  I treated myself to a flight in DC-3 "DAK" over the wreck of the Rena.  It was a fantastic day with perfect weather.  A few photos (and I might get round to editing up the hour or so of video I took sometime soon):

Motiti Island from the DC-3

Possibly my favourite US warbird - the mighty Vought Corsair

Spitfire TRIX MH367 fires up - LOVE that sound!!
