Hong Kong to Auckland! (Cathay Pacific A359)

When I began my flight, I expected a rather smooth one throughout but little did I know that severe weather was to be in effect at Auckland when I was arriving! A quick, bumpy approach was met with a tricky crosswind landing that didn’t go down too well, you can see why below 🤣

That’s cool! I was tempted to fly the B77W as well but couldn’t resist the A350 when I got the opportunity haha

atleast you used the aircraft that cathay pacific uses in real life for this route :D or is it the a350-1000

They use the A359 and the B77W at times I believe

Wow! These pics are great, looks like the landing wasn’t the worst though.
