- Refuel (mains and tips) and add oil on arrival.
- AME says "beautiful shape" once the fouled plugs were cleaned up.
- Comments... had that huge wind from the previous inbound flight on departure... wow.  A great flight otherwise, and fun to be in New Zealand.
- In RW, working from home, day 3.  Chilly today.  Marg did a grocery run and no drama.  Pup is keeping me company.
