TJL proves her prowess yet again. Who says Flight Levels are the exclusive playground of airliners and not the domain of a well‑handled, normally aspirated 172?

The weather behaved itself for half the weekend, giving several members the chance to climb far higher than their usual neighbourhood, try their hand at supplemental oxygen, and enjoy a bird’s‑eye view of a very busy Saturday afternoon stream of international arrivals into Auckland. FL150 was achieved — a figure that generated more than a little curiosity from Auckland Control, who very kindly supported our high‑altitude ambitions.

Sunday, alas, was less cooperative, and TJL remained earthbound. But with a bit of luck and a friendlier forecast, we’ll be able to run another Flight Levels weekend soon and give more members the chance to join in the fun.
