That photo goes a long way to reinforcing the fact that the pilots on the scarebus dont do anything... There's no control yoke!!!! :ph43r:









yes, I know that there is a stick on the side...

Sweet pics dude- Am I right in thinking you flew there in the 767 but got to sit in an A320 cockpit? How does that work?

I think he flew an A320, just took a photo of a 767. Although, the 767 flight leaves at 7am, the A320 flights not til much later.

:hesaid: yeah i was on the 8am out ,that plane was just the first one i seen while in departure ,bit of a bummer i was looking forward to maybe something alittle bigger than the a320 but in the end the a320 was pretty sweet ,the pilot said this one was the oldest in the fleet of airbus that anz has ...

Hey cool pics mate :thumbup:
Just watch out for the glare of the window :blink:
Nice to see a Saab, shame they dont fly in NZ now.
Did you get to go on any other aircraft except the tasman crossings?

Nice pics mate. :thumbup:
Thanks for posting.
I especially like the Saab - they were my favourite of the TPs in NZ i think.

I hope you've had a great time in Oz .
