Firework flight!

Well we had a flight with a difference today … it was night flying (yes I know I’ve done that before!) to go and watch the Christchurch PArk fireworks and to try to get a video. Wowee - it was brilliant, you get such a good view of the fireworks form the air and it’s surprising how low they actually are when you’re flying :-) After the display we pushed up through the cloud to 6,500 feet and came out on top in the moonlight - wow - what an experience… I can see why they call it a bombers moon. When we got back home we had a good look at Debs video - it’s good and Nigel set it to music to use at the Boys Brigade service tomorrow - and because he liked it so much he’s put it up on YouTube along with my “Pudsey Video”… My fame just keeps on growing and growing! I just can’t get used to how different it is flying at night - everything just gets so much closer - it’s weird… you also need good eyes… hmmm That’s me out then!
