Mark Kuebeler Posted January 1, 2007 at 03:44 AM Posted January 1, 2007 at 03:44 AM Great job VATNZ! I flew one my VA's newly established New Zealand routes from Dunedin up to Auckland this evening. The accents, slight differences in ATC phraseology, and weather made it a particularly challenging flight. The arrival into Auckland resulted in a scramble to get the correct NDB tuned when I discovered I had the wrong one programmed in the FMC and the one I needed was not in the FMC database. Somehow managed to fly close enough to the published tracks so as not set off any alarms, and had a smooth arrival at NZAA. Here's wishing you all a lot of traffic in the coming year!
