Would be interesting to get a reply from Craig on how he designed this information, does he live there? Reason I say that is I noticed a few discrepancies in the information he has used. Having flown in and out of Taupo a few times you get to know where things are and whats there ;)

There is more based at Taupo than what he stated in his readme! e.g. the Taupo Rescue squirrel, Heli harvest, Heli Serv and I missed a few others :)

I didnt state them because i didnt put anything in the file that had any thing to do with them. I made parking/gates for things that i knew where they were.

Nothing wrong with that!

What I originally posted was to point out what else was at Taupo rather than what you had already indicated! A bit of local knowledge goes a long way hence why Natas (Mike) is able to pump out the great projects for Hamilton and Ruapehu area.

I have emailed you in regards this, probaly your spam filter with hotmail is working overtime?
