Seen Flying Over the Whangaparaoa Peninsula

 

I have spent the weekend dogsitting at Stanmore Bay on the Whangaparaoa Peninsula.  The weekend weather was great and I was amazed at how many aircraft flew over in all directions including lots of helicopters and scheduled services to and from Great Barrier (FR24 was working overtime).  But in the early evening on Sunday this guy cruised down the peninsula then cruised back about a half an hour later.  I reckon he would have been under 1,000 feet and I know he would have been getting great views!

It certainly qualifies as civil aviation, just not as we know it!
