Ooh nice paint, Bernd.

I had the "pleasure" some years ago of being subjected to 5g manoeuvres in a Pitts Special over NZQN. I was bruised around the shoulders for weeks, from being tossed around the cockpit!

Here's a little clip, just taken with a shoephone, of the airport:

 

And the cousins from our western province over the Tasman at ORBX, have it quite wrong: the McKenzie Basin and surrounds is really quite brown, most of the time.

I've never seen it quite such a saturated green... what were they thinking??

Thanks a lot gents.

I had set the season to Oct., so your spring time. Never been to Queenstown myself, only to Christchurch and a few places on your North Island. Maybe we should complain to ORBX people  :wink:

Didn't know one could? 

Anyway, it's quite dreadful - but in no way a reflection on your screen shots which at face value, are great to look at!
