Finally flew around New Zealand's Largest Lake!

Подробнее о видео

After many years of failed attempts, I've finally managed a 'round the lake' flight. Lake Taupo is New Zealand's largest lake, and is an active super volcano. In this trip we fly over some very un-landable terrain, past mountains, and into the thick of overdevelopment.
