Stillwater Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Seeing the beautiful scenery around Mt. Cook, I assume that would be a great hiking area. But walking is nothing we would consider on this forum, so I chose a slightly faster way to get out of NZFJ... ... up Waiho river, ... ... to pick up some more bushwalkers in NZGH Glacier Country airfield. We went southwards over Westland NP... ... for the next stop: NZFH Fox Glacier helipad. And now we "walk" up the Copeland Track ... ... towards Horace Walker Glacier, ... ... passing Mt. Sefton ... ... and leaving Mt. Cook behind. Finally a steep descent into NZMC Mount Cook airfield for a change to a fixed-wing airtool for the next tour.

But you have a local advantage! 7 hours ago, adambar said: I'm glad someone can fly those things, I sure can't. Nicely done Gerold! Don´t be afraid Adam, the Cerasim Blackhawk is the most-easy-to-fly helicopter I have seen in the sim. She has an autotrim system, rapidly adjusting so that you can fly her quite relaxed! I can strongly recommend her, either for the determined copter pilot or when there is a sale. 1 hour ago, bvdboomen said: Lovely trip mate! NZ is so much wonderful little airstrips.
