Dear Naoka Iwase
 
Thank you for your response to my OIA request.
 
Airways NZ "provides air traffic management services" - as stated here:
[2]https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlo....
My OIA request asked for "all the information that you hold on a circular
flight over Oamaru / coastal North Otago recorded on 19 March 2024 at
9:30am". Therefore, please respond to the following questions and
requests.
 
Preamble:
If you view the entire 6 minutes and 50 seconds of the video link provided
in my original request, you will notice that the plane appears to be
heading in an approximate southerly direction then changes direction to
the north (this can also be seen in two further videos - see Dropbox links
below). You state that the plane is an Air New Zealand flight ANZ671 which
departed Auckland Airport and landed at Dunedin Airport. As such it is
"supposed to be" heading south to an airport that is south 128 km (by
road) away.
 
Questions and requests:
- Why the loop?
- Why loop at that particular Oamaru/coastal North Otago location?
- What did your "air traffic management service" advise the pilot to do at
that location, and why?
- Please provide an audio recording or unredacted transcript of the
exchange between air traffic control and the pilot concerning the loop
recorded in my video footage.
- Please advise the time of departure from Auckland Airport and time of
arrival at Dunedin Airport.
