whitephotoDo a pilot at a high altitude overlooking Wanaka, New Zealand Lake Wanaka can be enjoyed in a variety of ways: from exciting skydiving, fun plane test drives, to cycling along the lake view or hiking to find the lonely and eternal tree in the lake... New Zealand is very Many scenery is perfect for overlooking the sky, especially the Wanaka area. There are the largest rivers in the South Island, Lake Wanaka and Lake Hawea, the beautiful Aspiring Snow Mountain and the glaciers hidden in it, and the beautiful canyon connecting Lake Wanaka and Mt Aspiring. All of this, beautiful, magnificent, colorful, or magnificent, is a great experience in this world. I chose to experience my own flying plane through the clouds and overlooking Wanaka from high altitude. Don't think flying a plane is just something that a rich handsome can do, you can do the same. There are lessons to learn to fly in Wanaka, and it's not hard at all, of course, with experienced pilots sitting next to you to keep you safe, and more importantly, the price is not expensive, and you can bring a friend for free. The flight time I chose is half an hour, the pilot will teach, assist takeoff and landing, and in the air will allow myself to operate the turn, accelerate, slow down, and pitch independently. The whole process requires English and coach communication, so a certain English speaking and speaking ability is required. During the flight, the coach will introduce the scenery of the Lake Vanaka area. Driving over Vanaka by yourself is definitely the most special way to experience it. You can proudly say that you are also the one who has flown the plane! The coach will perform a small "aerobatic flight" when conditions permit, swerving, up and downhill, very fun and exciting! The school where you learn to fly is also very interesting, you can take pictures while waiting~ Wanaka Airport can learn to fly a plane, you can also challenge skydiving here. Wanaka and Queenstown are very suitable for skydiving~ Address:6 Spitfire Lane, Wanaka Airport, Wanaka 9382 Price: NZ$219 for 20 minutes flight, NZ$269 for 30 minutes flight.
