Air Bus A320

Yesturday was Queens birthday weekend in NZ and Freedom Air decided with the arrival of their new aircraft to fly staff down to Hamilton. As we boarded the plane and flew into the blue yonder we flew around Auckland city then off towards the coromadel's before turning right towards Hamilton. Got some great photos which i'll post tonight so be sure to return soon to see those. The company also put on a great lunch with prize giveaways including several flights... unfortunatly i didn't win ;-( oh well. But after a fun day we had to catch a bus back to auckland, that's what you get when you work for a values based comapany.
The new A320 is a new aircraft similiar to the 737-300 but updated, its interesting when sitting in the cockpit to see no steering column and all they do to turn the plane is turn a small dial. Takes all the fun out of flying i think, but its an office with a spectacular view nonetheless
