... means "Out Of Trend" in analytical laboratories. Here it is supposed to mean "Out Of Tauranga" and combines two flights in one post, heading further southwards in my first-ever NZL exploration.

 

Taking off from the nicely modeled Tauranga...

... and the Huntly Genisis thermal powerstation.

The Shire is nearby, with the Hobbiton being located near Matamata. I couldn´t spot it, the camouflage seems to be too good.

The first flight headed into Rotorua in the evening...

... and the geothermal power stations into Taupo.

A good place to rest and do some hiking, I think.

Nice to see some screens of New Zealand. It's been a long time since I've virtually been there.

Come down and meet us!

Beautiful shots of New Zealand Gerold, well, I didn't win the lottery this week so I won't be buying a house there.  It would be nice.

I am not sure if I´d prefer Hawaii, Australia, the Alps, Italy, NZL or ... so many nice places...

Exquisite set Gerold.

Some wonderful POIs there and doesn't Mt Tarawera look incredible.

Oh yes it does look great. These surprises are the highlights on my tour...

Magnificent set!  Since the purchase of NZ I spend more time there than I do at my real home country!

Let me think... no, I still am more often at home than in the virtual skies of NZL. But it sounds like a good idea...

 

Thank you all for commenting and have a good start into the year!
