Non Night Shift Presents: Region! Cook Straight

Announcing This Month's Non Normal, visiting the Cook Straight region.

Seperating the North South Island and home to some of the best flying of all types! Jets into Wellington.. turoprop action into Nelson or Paraparaumu and some of the most scenic GA flying going around !

This Month's Non Normal will focus on the airports/fields situated around the Cook Straight. With a variety of controlled and uncontrolled airports, all of which are surrounded by water and susceptible to weather it should make for a fun evening with a mix of traffic types, and controllers a chance to station themselves at towers not normally frequented by normal traffic.

Whilst you can enjoy the whole NZZC as per usual the aim is to have as many movements in and out of the Cook Straight region as possible.
