A Windy Wellington Afternoon

A good way to spend a few hours in windy Wellington is to head down to the airport with a camera! The southerly was making life just a little interesting for the drivers! The Aero Club had a number of their aircraft out doing circuits so if you messed up the first time you got to try again!

    Good to see that Tomahawk WAC.
    In a previously life it was WAH, on-line with the Waitemata Aero Club.
    As such, I did most of my PPL in her.
    The nicest PA38 of their fleet.

    Interesting to see that VGF is operating just one day after it's engine failure out of YBCG!
