Auckland Airport on Saturday

by Pamela Moresby May 6, 2019, 11:20 am 99 Views 15 Votes 16 Comments

There was fog on Saturday morning and some plane flights were delayed or cancelled.

We were taken to the airport viewing carpark lounge by our neighbour John.

These are some photos I took this day.

The thumbnail is of a plane taxing to take off.

See for yourself

#1 Cloud formation

You can see the airfield from this view and you can see other cars that are spectators as well

I would be so afraid in the fog on a plane.

  Fog occurs sometimes, it is due to air currents and no wind

So foggy… Planes are my favorite transport… I have heard somewhere that they are the safest means of transport

  Yes, when I consider a trained pilot has to check their own plane before take off, the plane is safest because the pilots know the skies are less forgiving.
  Yet if we were as vigilant as pilots with our cars there would be less road accidents
