A couple of weeks ago I was walking the track alongside the runway when KRA took off for Auckland using Rwy 34 at full capacity thanks to earlier fog delaysAnnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12522994242513369832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397738201762479975.post-25340447735188764132019-05-29T14:27:05.630+12:002019-05-29T14:27:05.630+12:00Great use of the spare aircraft.
