ANZ 8 - Auckland to San Francisco - Air New Zealand 777-200

Enjoy the amazing start up and spooling sounds of the Rolls Royce Trent 895s when the 772 taxis. You can see the Auckland city skyline lights on the climb out, but on the approach into SFO we flew over Silicon Valley with views of the salt lakes and the hills. The landing was silky smooth, probably one of the smoothest I've had thanks to the ANZ pilots! The first part of the startup, taxi, takeoff and climb out were recorded in 1080p with a Canon 60D, and the approach and landing were recorded with a Canon Legria HFR26 in 1080p also.
