Cockpit view Landing through thick cloud

[allanjenkins]

Known as the land of the long white cloud, if you fly into New Zealand you could well encounter this scenario.

Hold on to your seat.

This is the descent into Queenstown, New Zealand. Notice the mountain range he is flying toward.
It must take great faith in your instruments to pilot an approach like this, but the rush must be amazing.

Just watched this - that is something man !

Not as scary as the wife giving me a lift without scraping ice from the windscreen first though!
