Parakai Airfield and another visit to the sculpture garden

Hello Everyone,
I flew out of Parakai Airfield (some 40 km north of Auckland, New Zealand, on the West Coast) for the first time today. I would not have been able to legally fly there without my airband radio. How many of you powered fliers have one?

I revisited the sculpture garden up the coast from the airfield.

Back to the sculpture garden again today. The PPG boys couldn't get away from the takeoff zone because of the 12-knot wind at 500 ft, but my Sport2 155 / Mosquito NRG was up for the job.
