7:04 its about drive its about power

[@xthompsongunx]

Okay seriously this is such a missed opportunity and I’m disappointed in myself for not thinking of it 😂

[@captainjoshq300]

you say hungry, we devour

[@greatsteamreal]

@@captainjoshq300 put in the work and the hours

[@captainjoshq300]

And take what’s ours

[@nagrom97]

Small note - you kept saying 'Federal Government'... New Zealand doesn't have a federal system of government

[@Millie-um2bi]

The Rock needs to feature in some action movie

[@xthompsongunx]

It’s about Drive, it’s about power

[@AotearoaAviation]

Amazing :D You should do Christchurch airport next

[@Attomicc076]

100%

[@Attomicc076]

Get all the big three done

[@Mr-man_png]

You deserved to be hearted

[@Mr-man_png]

Plus, Christchurch is my favourite city, even though I’m born in the Capital

[@AotearoaAviation]

@@Mr-man_png Thanks!

[@Mr-man_png]

Just a little side note; in 2018, Wellington Airport got a new ATC, and also, one of my dad’s friends lived next to the old ATC

[@Mr-man_png]

But wait, don’t you need to have 1K subs for Monetization?

[@chrismckellar9350]

Just a point to note - New Zealand does not have a 'federal' government has New Zealand does not operate a 'federal' system of governance, as the country in not divided into states unlike Australia. New Zealand is governed under a 'central' government known as the New Zealand government.

[@xthompsongunx]

Thanks Chris!

[@kenningtonfamily1853]

I can confirm, as someone who lives in wellington that our airport DOES indeed have giant eagles and a dragon with a working eye.

[@Killereggman]

to be fair, welly airport is nicer than shitney aus..... Air NZ still premium

[@Invisty]

para para oo moo XD ... I mean, it's a better pronunciation than "pram" like the locals say

[@petesharpe4120]

Marginally better.... would be a lot better without the Australian twang.

[@LiamCubelesConway]

Please do Christchurch or Queenstown airport. Would love to see you do a video on one of those. Your doing great👍

[@nishahanda6316]

gooooood

[@robertscott4759]

Federal government?!?!? You don't know much about Aotearoa New Zealand.

[@Cam.a14]

Can you do Christchurch airport pls

[@abecoulter8550]

hi, local kiwi, um, yea new zealand dosent have a federal government, New Zealand is a unitary state rather than a federation-local government has only the powers conferred upon it by the national Parliament.

[@xthompsongunx]

Thanks mate! Yeah I realised through discussion after I posted the video that I didn’t quite have the details right on that one! I’ve corrected it for my most recent video on Air New Zealand!

[@abecoulter8550]

NZ doesn’t have a Federal government, it’s a unitary state.

[@Josephmcbphotography]

This is awesome mate! Please do Christchurch airport!

[@NonyAviationNewZealand]

Really enjoyed all your videos, could you possibly do Tauranga Airport? Thanks!

[@petesharpe4120]

New Zealand doesn't have a 'Federal' government. We're not a little America, like Australia.

[@WaferBrik]

When I was younger my job meant I had to fly around the country often. I had so many terrible experiences on planes attempting to land at this airport in high winds and foul weather that I will no longer fly anywhere.

[@daveadams6421]

Wellington airport has been a political football for decades. It's outrageous that in the 21 century this short runway still can't accept the large jets which have to use Auckland or Christchurch. Yes they have landed large jets but only as a proof of concept purpose.

[@bradleynoneofyourbizz5341]

As with all tax payer funded projects it's a given that the economic benefit is half what it will really be. But even then, the question that never seems to get answered is WHO will benefit.

747, 777, 787, A330 and A350 landing here is so satisfying because the runway is so short 😅 so i love that these can

[@Mr-man_png]

Oh wait, did I say that my dad’s friend used to live next to the old ATC? I meant he still lives next to the old ATC
