Friday 3rd, Lets Go North! GA in New Zealand

Post by Corsair015 »

Well, we all thought it was about time for another Friday MP flight, so I've gone and made one!
Again, this is in the beautiful lands of Aotearoa, New Zealand!

We have flown around the deep valleys and fiords of the south, and the volcanic lands of the north, but have we gone as far north or as far south as possible?
Nope! So this and the next Friday MP flight will me centered around getting to the ends of my relatively small country. This week's being north.

We will be flying from New Zealand's biggest airport, Auckland (NZAA)
From there we will head up past the AFB Whenuapai (NZWP) to the North Shore aerodrome. This in real life has a very interesting feature, its runway has a very prominent bow towards the center! Look up photos for NZNE on Google and you'll see what I mean. Unfortunately this is not modeled in FSX/P3D as far as I know
From there we will be following the east coast up to Whangarei (NZWR) and then we will wind our way through the hills of northland to KeriKeri (NZKK). Our last airport after that is Kaitaia (NZKT), the northern most airport in New Zealand.

The last waypoint on this flight is Cape Reinga and the lighthouse at the very top of NZ. There is nowhere to land around there (safely!), so we return to Kaitaia to end our journey.

The route will take us about 2 hours in fast GA at about 100kts average. There are airfields along the way, so if people need to drop out they can do so.
We can choose at the time whether we want to do a touch and go at these fields.

Meet time: 2000z
Take off by: 2030z
Aircraft: GA, preferably fast
Sim Time: Set time to real. 0900
Scenery used: ORBX New Zealand, North Island
Weather: Set to real, forecast is good.
Communications via the A2A discord
JoinFS server will be DigitalThemePark

Hope to see you there!

Sorry might be a stupid question, but is this going to be in FSX or P3D?

We will be using both, as JoinFS bridges the two
Not a dumb question at all ;)
