It’s amusing watching you guys criticise on this thread. I distinctly remember flying into Christchurch on a gin clear night. Heard an Aussie crew divert around weather. Turns out said weather was Mount Cook

What’s the newspaper in the window for. Was it really sunny or does it shield from cosmic radiation as alluded above!!!!!

I’d say that was a great outcome…. avoiding Mt Cook.
