I went in 2000 and 2002. magnificent! ...but I do believe it has been taken over by bean counters and the quality of the show is not what it use to be. Please tell me I am wrong when you get back. That part of the country is fantastic. Take warm clothes as there was snow on them there hills. Show is at the Airport with great displays of tractors, military and everything else mechanical. I can still hear the rumbling of all those Polikarpov flying over head!
If I recall Cromwell is only about a half hour drive to Wanaka and Queenstown around an hour. I love Queenstown. Lunch at the Irish Pub looking over the lake! I use to sit there and ponder as to why no one had set up a float plane scenic company off that lake. Other than low cloud would be perfect.
Wish I was going...
