Mountain Flying Cessna 172 | Queenstown Scenic Flight
EP176: Flying a Cessna 172 from Queenstown Airport, New Zealand, through mountain valleys over the snow. I fly a C172 with Wakatipu Aero Club over Mountains and Lakes to explore Queenstown from the air. We fly out of Queenstown Airport, over the Shotover River, Coronet Peak, Lake Wakatipu, and back via some low level valley flying.
Thanks to Kerry and the Wakatipu Aero Club for helping organise this and for looking after me on the day. If you're in Queenstown and want to go fly I can't recommend it enough, what a great experience!

BUSH FLYING: Martin's Bay: McCauley's Strip
Remote strip training at Martins Bay, South Island New Zealand. The strip is located 51nm from Queenstown on the west coast. Martin's Bay is inaccessible by road, and most aviation traffic is for transporting hunters/fisherman/trampers.
The flight here is a training flight operated by the Wakatipu Aero Club based out of Queenstown, New Zealand: the adventure capital of the world. With over a dozen remote strips of varying difficulty within a 20 minute radius, and a dizzying array of river valleys and saddles in the immediate area, Queenstown is one of the best training grounds in the world for VFR mountain flying. On top of that it is the premier general tourism destination in all of New Zealand.

New Zealand in a WRX: Lake Wakatipu
Ever wanted to go on a roadtrip around New Zealand?
Lake Wakatipu is where the adventure town of New Zealand is located: Queenstown! This is a very nice drive along its shore, not as exciting as bungee jumping or paragliding, water skiing or all the other things that one can do in this place, but cool nonetheless.
The lake itself is typical of a glacier origin valley, very long and with steep sides, the sides clearly marked with the horizontal scars of the ice scraping against the rock. Very deep, and very cool (in all senses!).

Queenstown New Zealand Fireworks Lake Wakatipu New Years Eve Sunset Timelapse
New Year's Eve December 31, 2016 in Queenstown Otago New Zealand on Lake Wakatipu with fireworks and amazing fast moving clouds over the lake front sunset. New Zealand is one of the first countries to celebrate the New Year, 21 hours ahead of Los Angeles and 18 hours ahead of New York.
I had just arrived in New Zealand a day earlier and was still very jet lagged. So I setup my GoPro in the window of the Rydges Hotel room around 9pm. I wanted to capture the sunset and the fireworks celebration. The view in the video is from the 3rd floor hotel room overlooking the Lake Esplanade and Lake Wakatipu with the Remarkables peaks towering in the distance. You can see the fireworks display over the lake 15 seconds into the video.
Queenstown is often called the unofficial adventure capital of the world and is the birthplace of bungee jumping. It is a great place to spend the new years holiday and vacation. There is great hiking, skiing, restaurants, bars, and activities.
