AP on and arm the approach mode, sit back and monitor, click off autopilot at DA and land.

Re: IFR in to Queenstown
A real eyeopener is to do an RNP approach like this one in a sim or A/C in VMC and see how close the terrain really is.

Just supposing we wanted to add an Queenstown IFR approach to our ATR72 simulator what might we need to add? I assume the sim has basic equipment for the type.
Meanwhile we have a front-office video a fair weather flight to Queenstown,

Australis is NZ's penal colony. We send our young people there to be trained in criminal ways and when they graduate Australia sends them back.

Re: IFR in to Queenstown
2% of Australian prison population are NZ born and NZ born make up 2.3% of total Australian population so it seems that Kiwis in Australia are more law abiding than Australians.

So not so much IFR in the sense of Instrument Flight Rules, or I Follow Roads, as a case of "I Flout the Rules!"

Re: IFR in to Queenstown
Sadly I lost a friend IFR from Queenstown some years back, but that was on another continent.

Exactly John, been saying this for years now, they get trained in Kiwi enclaves of criminal activity, and very often they get caught because they get around in cars with big "Silverfern" stickers om their rear windscreens....we'd keep them here if they were smart enough to become citizens.....but they choose not to become citizens...and so we send them back to you.....
