Seat 1A

3C301, Tauranga TRG to Tauranga TRG (Air Chathams DC3 Scenic Flight)

Takeoff Tauranga TRG Runway 25

A bit of a delay while a very minor battery issue was attended too. Engines on, we eventually begin our taxi out to Runway 25. Beautiful Takeoff in this mighty vintage taildragger over the Harbour and Tauranga City.

A stunning airliner that has been restored and looked after by Air Chathams. It's passionate people, like the ones at Air Chats and FlyDC3 that ensure future generations get to enjoy and appreciate this incredible part of history! Every phone and camera seemed to be pointed our way as we taxied out. Even the Pilots of the Waiting DH8C as we taxied past. :)
