Masterton Air Rally (56k death)
Posted: 2007-08-31 12:27am
Spyder and I took a trip to the Masterton air rally in the Wairarapa last weekend.
Folding wings for convenient storage.
You might recognise this as the plane from King Kong. The oil and dirt on it is actually painted on.
When a fast car just doesn't compensate enough for you, own a P40 kittyhawk. Available for joyrides at the low price of $3000 per hour.
Tiger moth with her cowling down. Also a movie star, appearing in Black Sheep.
Piper Supercub
A Boeing Stearman.
Go west young man! The plane Spyder and I rode in for the air rally, a Cherokee 6
The Chipmunk
Take off and the lovely Wairarapa.
Where they take you out to do your "getting lost" part of pilot training.
More hills. Sometimes the airplane glass does weird things to my photo colours.
500 ft above the ground at all times...
We also took a spin past Peter Jackson's house. Our pilot said Peter doesn't like people taking pictures of his house, so I didn't take any photos of that. Sweet digs, though.
