Flights

Many localities invite to go on sightseeing flights, including the volcanoes of the North Island, fiords, primeval forests, Alps or the glaciers of the South Island. Transport by a small airplane has its charm and it is usually more affordable. However, a helicopter will take you to places where an airplane cannot get, not to mention the possibility of landing in places where human foot would hardly ever appear without the help of a helicopter. Hikers use air transport to take them home at the end of several-day hikes. New Zealand offers excellent conditions for gliding. Take advantage of this opportunity to gain uncommon experience and let yourself be wafted in a two-seat glider over the peaks of Alps. Experienced glider pilots can take one of the courses in slope and high-mountain flying or you can take a complete gliding training course. For aviation fans, aviation museums naturally belong to this activity. New Zealand harbours many aviation exhibits, which an aviation fan would probably not expect to find here. Several professional restoration workshops repair old airplanes and make them flyable again and sell them abroad. You can see some of the flightworthy exhibits with your own eyes, including, for example, Polikarpov I -153 and I-16, P-40, Catalina, DH-82, 83, 89. You should certainly not miss on one of the opportunities to visit a local museum or to fly in Tiger Moth. We will gladly offer the suitable alternative and include it in your itinerary according to your interest and possibilities.
