Dragon Flight to the Mosquito ShowSmith’s Trans-Air NZ are offering a ride in vintage style to and from the Mosquito unveiling show. The current plan is to fly to Ardmore before the show and return to North Shore that afternoon, mechanical and weather gods permitting (times TBC). At present there are 5 seats available in each direction at $80 per seat (Round trip $150). We are happy to have people fly/drive seat-swap with one another and will do our best to facilitate this. The trip from North Shore will be approximately East Coast Bays-North Head-Musick Point-Whitford-Ardmore and the return similar with a flight time each way of approximately 40 minutes. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- STANZ will also be offering scenic flights from North Shore on the Sunday after (or during, depending on interest and duration of the meet) the forum meet. These are $60 per seat for 20 minutes airborne in the local area. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You can contact me here via PM or book via STANZ directly on: vintageaircraft@xtra.co.nz 09 426 3735 vintageaircraft.co.nzAndrew

All seats gone. Thought we might crack 1000 views before that happened but a fortuitous conversation at the aero club found a couple of passengers.
Of all you who are watching, are any of you intending to book one of the scenic rides on the Sunday from North Shore (any indication will help us plan the day).
Seats booked via the forum or by forum members and friends will include a donation/payment to Dave for his assistance with advertising.

Update time: we will be offering scenic flights at Ardmore between the show slots. $60 per seat for 15 minutes in the local area. Note same price but shorter duration that the offer for Sunday.
Also if you have not booked to go to the Subritzky's this does not preclude visiting us at North Shore and going for a ride on the Sunday, but an indication of interest would be appreciated.
Thanks
Andrew

Due to the lack of interest in rides on the Sunday these may not happen, Bruce please try and see us on Saturday at Ardmore.
Thanks
Andrew

Sorry to have missed you Bruce, will try and get hold of you and see how Sunday develops. Any other interested parties can PM me or call STANZ directly on 09 426 3735- though don't expect much until late morning... it's been a big day.

My lad and I had a wonderful flight in the Dragon yesterday, a real privilidge to fly in such a rare and historic aircraft. These old beauties won't be around forever, I had a chance to fly in a Rapide last year at Duxford and the Fox Moth is next in my sights when i get back up North again. Thanks Andrew, a great flight yesterday & one we won't forget
