  1. Great shots, Scott.

    If I had the space I would've kept it, a hybrid of P3D and MSFS would be heaven!

    A hybrid with the graphics of MSFS and the open, well expanded system of p3d (with some of its planes), that would be it, indeed.

    It is within terminal 1 so neither landside nor airside. It is not in the transit area though, if you are referring to this, but I don't think this was a requirement.

    I am currently flying to Munich, but with only 50 minutes changeover time I will not take the risk to leave the security area. I must get my hydration elsewhere…

    As always, I am a bit late to the party.😉

    I recommend the "Airbräu" at Munich airport (EDDM). A typical Bavarian craft brewery, located at the edge of terminal 1, right at the plaza between terminals 1 snd 2. It even features an al fresco "Biergarten", that's a typical Bavarian eating and beer drinking area (hint, hint @flyingleaf 😜) on the plaza.

    Good meals and drinks, friendly service, nice atmosphere.

    Indeed a nice place, but landside, as far as I remember?

    nice shots/pics, had to double take on Wanaka though....is the bridge just a footbridge? if it's for cars is it oneway or what? wouldn't want road rage halfway over...

    Thanks for watching and your question. The brisge is part of the state highway 6, means the most important road on the west coast. The Haast pass (further up the hills just before the Blue Pools) is the southernmost pass in the NZ Southern Alps.

    There are 2 (or 3?) escape pods on the bridge, where you can cooperate with any head traffic and let them / yourself pass. "Co-ordinate" is a word that would not work in German traffic... and that shows how relaxed life is at that part of the world.

  5. In my last post we went north from the fjordland of NZ´s south island:

    Today we continue our trip, passing Haast...

    ... and the Haast River bridge, which presented 2 surprises for us (not shown here): It is a single lane bridge for about a kilometer. And there were myriads of pesky Sandflies waiting for the crazy guy who took a photo.

    Following the Haast Pass road we encounter the Blue Pools, ...

    And by plane it is a relatively short hop from there over the Southern Alps...
