Late Sun in the North

It was a fabulous evening for a local flight tonight.  I took off from Kaipara Flats airfield at 6.50 pm for a half hour flight.  I just stayed local but climbed to 3500 feet from where you can see both coasts clearly as well as Whangarei Heads in the North and Rangitoto Island to the South.

Lining up on Runway 07.  Just as well I could take off and land with the sun behind me!

Warkworth in the distance (click to enlarge).

The new Puhoi to Warkworth motorway is making progress.

Over Kaipara Flats Village.  You can see the airfield in the distance in the middle of the photo (look for the earthworks).

Honey Bebe back home in the very late sun.

Magic!
