Did he stop before the end of the runway.
He seemed to be approaching it a bit fast? :shock:

I've flown into Queenstown several times - always glad to have my feet on the ground on arrival. Always a bit scary if one doesn't like flying. The beauty of the scenery tends to make one forget about the nerves. Thanks for sharing that - quite amazing and very interesting. :-) ;-)
