Thanks for the heads up, maybe they could do a low level over the stadium lol.

Initially, I didn't see HB on the schedule. I watched the Pacific Air Show on YouTube recently and am thrilled we will get some flybys from the F-35A. How exciting!

Wonder where they will do it. Would be cool to see

u/MaidenMarewa Napier 3d ago

Possibly a touch and go or even a landing at Napier airport like when the Luffwaffe were here.

Awesome. Wish they did BOP flyby

By Canterbury they definitely mean Christchurch, right? Like there's very little chance they fly to Timaru.

Wouldn’t be hard to do. It’s only 6 minutes from Christchurch to Timaru in an F-35.
