Stealth is right one sneaked into Omaka about 3 months ago and if I hadn't seen it sneaking back out heading to Woodbourne I wouldn't have known it had been here

RHINO02 flew an instrument approach at Auckland 3 August then flew down the runway at around 70ft before breaking off and heading to the Papakura Army Camp where it remained for about 3 hours before heading south VFR.

MAKO01 (A109) overflew Auckland VFR southbound about an hour earlier.

Great pics. They don't show the sign that shredded on arrival by the rotor wash or the car that almost got blown off its wheels on departure.
