Our pilot was a young 20 something boy who did fantastic job(s) of piloting the glider, spotting whales/ dolphins/ seals etc as well as communicating with the other flights around. Felt 1000% secure as well as satified, since the flight also included some scenic path around the Kaikoura bay area. Had a generous time viewing the whales berthing on surface for catcihing some air, then loads of dolphins, seals etc.
