    Top Gun wannabes!

    Hey folks,

    Pete here, moved up from Palmy in January and have only just found the site
    Working out at the Air Force Base in Whenuapai, and I'm wondering who else on the site is either in the military or the nearby area.

    Have been along to a few ATNR and AWNR rides, keen to do some more with folks in the area.

    Pete

    Cheers swoop, although we're all wannabe's in the Royal New Zealand Coast Guard. No F-14's for us or the U.S anymore, but we are getting a couple of pig (F-111) visitors for the open day on Sat!
