Leg 4: American Samoa to New Zealand, 1558 nm, 11 hours, comparatively short..... it's all relative by this time
There are a fair number of islands en route making this leg a little more interesting.
I'll be doing an oil change at Ardmore airport, SE of Auckland airport. I've already checked and AeroShell oil is readily available.
I'm anxious to visit my aunt who lives in Whangarei, north of Auckland. My Dad will also be visiting and together we plan to discover a little of New Zealand by train and plane.
