    I see Manson hut is now available from 9th Feb to 8th March - I'm pretty sure that was booked pretty solid right through when I looked last week (Manson and Tussock seem to pretty fully booked most of the year).
    There will be some pissed off people if they lose their roar bookings!

    My April booking for Manson was 7th-14th thankfully i got it again, but there was one in front of us which is still vacant.

    I imagine there could be some heartache over this hence putting it out there.

    Helisika $2,200 to back ridge return! I asked them to quote for me by myself. Same price for 3. I will probably never tread back ridge again.
    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.

    Hawkes bay helicopters have just got their concession for the Kawekas, so could be an option from the East - but yeah unfortunately Bridge Pa will never be as close as Puketitiri

    Bit of a shame that no-one else has picked up the gap left by Chris. We looked at it through Heli Sika but way to expensive for a couple of guys from the South.

    Bridge Pa is a long way alright and would cost heaps to fly, but I wonder if they could lease Chris's hangar for a couple of months thru the roar and base a chopper there....
