Step back half a century and relive the glorious age of pioneer aviation while surrounded by some of the world’s most stunning scenery.

After travelling half way around the world in 2012, the Jean Batten Clipper, one of the few remaining legendary DC3s still in the air, has taken up residence in Fiordland where she treats her passengers to flightseeing excursions over Lake Te Anau and neighbouring fiords during the summer months.

The Viewmaster modification provides large panoramic windows for superb viewing , while 19 large comfortable reclining leather seats and exquisite inflight service recreate the atmosphere of this glamorous period.

Beautiful, I wish I could get a rating in a DC3, there are quite a few still flying freight in the Caribbean - real aeroplanes!
