Flying CHC to HKK in the Beech 1900!
Often a beautifully scenic flight...but not always...... Low cloud all around Hokitika... 2 attempted approaches abandoned.. "We will have to go back if we can't get in this time"...
Sneaky and very low approach from seaward and in under the clouds....
Not really NZ but....HKK again... picking up keys to a car owned by the Bach owner - from the airport staff..and they had MULTIPLE sets waiting to be collected!
Chatting to one of the in flight "Concierges"....telling her the only things missing in J were pyjamas and slippers....
Getting a parcel in the mail 2 weeks later with a pure wool subtly NZ logoed long sleeved thermal type shirt....and a note saying this was as close as she could get to pyjamas! (yes, was Elite at the time..or Gold Elite as it was called then)
Seat 10A on the 763.
