my dad said he saw an aircraft doing hard banks yesterday. he said it was white, but it could well have been the 757, i saw it overhead later in the day

Must have been for either the Devonport or Mission Bay festivals- wish I seen it!

I saw a Herc going over low this avo though.

there was a white aero star doing big turns over the water front aswell

[kiwiflyboy]

mmmmmm an aero-star, more commonly referred to as the death star

[ZK-Brock]

An aerostar? Sweet, arent they like the fastest turboprops around or something? (they are turboprops aren't they

[kiwiflyboy]

All i know is they have terrible single engine handling, hence the name death star, a bit like the Mitsubishi Mu,

[Naki]

Nope piston still very fast though.

Yesterday afternoon I could also see a small aircraft doing aerobatics over the Tamaki Estuary- I thought it must have been a model RC plane because it was pulling incredible manoeuvres but I couldn't here its engine sound, and I was looking at it in the distance though binoculars so I couldn't tell its size.
