Hokitika Airfield (NZHK)
Departures: 1 Arrivals: 3
Fire up your favorite Aircraft or Rotorcraft from the hangar and make your way to the West Coast Region to finish off the month.
Join us on the West Coast in the South Island to make your way to Hokitika, A small town on the West Coast of New Zealand. Surrounding Hokitika is Steep Mountainous Terrain and Water, so you will definitley need an aircraft with some power behind it, preferably a turboprop.
There are many smaller strips dotted up and down the coast from Hokitika which will happily host your smaller General Aviation Aircraft, however In order to get over the Mountains you will need something more powerful, a good choice for those pilots wishing to take the commercial route. If traveling from further away it is suggested that you take a bigger aircraft from Nelson or Christchurch.
