X-Country with Floody


Your Captain for today's flight will be a crazy Irishman with the mental age of a 10 year old (aka Simon Flood, a very good friend of mine from Uni)


The Waikato River

Mt. Ruapehu, New Zealand's largest ski resort. It's also an active volcanic and last erupted in 1996. The smaller mountain to the left of Ruapehu is Mt. Ngauruhoe, also an active volcanic and used as Mount Doom in the Lord of the Rings movie trilogy.

Another mountain, this one is Mt. Taranaki on the east coast of the North Island. Floody and I were flying over 120 km's from it when I took this photo, gives you some idea of how big it is.
