Would’ve loved to join, but the timing doesn’t work. Wanted to pipe in that the FP says WGLL and not EGLL. Cheers!
I don’t think the main runway at NZQN is long enough for a 787 - but then again that’s never stopped me trying such things!! Good luck.

Thanks, I’ll double check, it was a last minute thing to make this an event as others showed interest.
Yeah the runway is pretty short, but with an almost empty plane it will be fine
We enjoyed this flight so much we are doing an immediate return leg
