Single achievement

Aotearoa 04 NZQN to NZMW

This is a virtual airline achievement created by Fliggity Air.

First licensed to operate in 1935, the Queenstown airport is located in Franktown, Otago, New Zealand about 8km from the central business district. It’s a busy airport handling over 2 million passengers a year; in fact, it’s New Zealand’s 4th busiest airport by passenger traffic. The airport is known for its scenery and challenging approach to land due to nearby high terrain.

Directions: After taking off stay in the valley heading eastward following the river/stream until it meets the road right around BBRIE. Turn slightly south over the Gibbston Valley where you’ll see several vineyards. Fly over Gibbston Valley Winery & Restaurant and follow the road as it winds its way through the mountains and comes out near NZCS where you'll turn north and follow the valley to Queensberry (waypoint JOLLY), where you’ll find the Clutha River running northwest. Follow the river into Lake Wanaka and waypoint EPDEX. Stay over the lay heading north-northwest to waypoint MWAHO where you’ll fly over the Mou Waho Lookout point which is on an island in the lake. From there, continue north over the lake to the shore where you’ll stay in the valley heading north and flying over Makarora and landing at NZMW.
