Winning mate.

she's got her own rifle that i steal fairly regular , happy to camp before kids we spent 4ish months in Canada and a lot of that was in a tent. as for the heli flight ive got 2 kidneys and only need the 1.

so ive had a mear and cant log in as hackmeat. got a plan sorted out . anyone used knights point air ?

Nothing to do with your trip but just checking that Iamhackmeat is the OG hackmeat.

I've used KPA once flying into the Waiatoto in Blair's ' pregnant Cub.Limited payload 140kg so will require 2 trips to get you & yours plus pack n rifles into your destination.Blair won't push the payload limits, strictly by the book.Well worth the experience cruising @ 90knots surrounded by Perspex so great veiws compared to a machine.Not as flexible-limited to valley floor bush strips,so no landing on the tops.But very good value for money as the operating costs are a fraction of a turbine rotorwing.Worth a try if you want something different

Myself and a couple of mates flew into the Pyke with Blair at Knights point Air during the last roar, Really nice guy, great value for money and that old Super cub is a blast from the past. PM me if you want any details

It's a slow way to travel, if one flys into the heads of the arawhata.

the view is often one of the best bits of the trip . will end up flying over some bits ive walked so will be interesting to get a birds eye view of it .
