Living under an ILS approach has its advantages. I don’t mind the jet noise, particularly when they’re not the usual domestic or local trans-Tasman fare.

Singapore Airlines used to fly Boeing 777-200ERs into Wellington via first Canberra, later Melbourne. They were a familiar sight but the only regular ‘heavy’.

This one, 9V-SRP, is overflying my house on a clear October 23rd, 2016.

The aircraft use seen from almost directly below, flying right to left against a clear blue sky. The underside of the fuselage is white and wings grey. The Singapore Airlines yellow, blue, and gold are visible particularly around the tail.
