Pilot makes emergency landing off Beachlands during test flight The experienced American pilot of a light amphibian plane, and his passenger, were forced to make an emergency landing in the sea off Pine Harbour Marina, Beachlands last Saturday morning after a mechanical malfunction. Five minutes after taking off from Ardmore Airfield, Dan Nickens abandoned the first New Zealand test flight of his newly assembled Searey light sports aircraft after an alarm came on, indicating a drop in oil pressure. “We’d only been in the air about five minutes but once the oil pressure started fluctuating and the temperature rose I knew there was only a short period of time to get the plane down before the engine seized,” Dan told the PC Times. Dan is the pilot and photographer who accompanied world-renowned author Richard Bach of Jonathan Livingstone Seagull fame, in his own seaplane on an epic cross country flight from Florida to the state of Washington in 2012. He took the photographs for Bach’s book Travels with Puff: A Gentle Game of Life and Death which was published in 2013. Only days after Bach handed in the manuscript for his book, he crashed Puff his Searey plane, after hitting powerlines on San Juan Island, sustaining severe injuries. He has since recovered. With 35 years’ experience as a pilot Dan calmly assessed his own flying situation over Beachlands last Saturday, choosing the best place to bring down his small plane. Shutting off the engine Dan glided to a safe landing in the shallow waters of an outgoing tide off Pine Harbour Marina, as surprised onlookers watched. Once down, Dan re-started the engine and taxied to a nearby sandbank off the Puriri Rd cliffs. “It was an abnormal situation but there was no concern because of the nature of the conditions. I honestly had no fear about our safety because it was the perfect area to make an emergency landing. The

2 POHUTUKAWA COAST TIMES (February 6th 2015)
Doggone it, just what the heck is going on! THE EDITOR SAYS BY DUNCAN PARDON duncan@pctimes.co.nz
Last week in this column I said there were no restrictions on dogs running off leash at Shelly Bay Beach, Beachlands, but the story has taken quite a few twists and turns since then. I wrote last week on the strength of the reply to a query I made to Auckland Council via its media communications team. The reply I got back said dogs could run off leash at Shelly Bay Beach at all times. Next day I got a call from Franklin Local Board member Malcolm Bell who told me there was a 9am to 7pm ban on dogs at Shelly Bay Beach during daylight saving months. “Nope, there isn’t,” I said, “because I’ve got an email from council to say there isn’t.” “Yes, there is,” he said, “because I’ve got an email from council to say there is.” We compared emails. Mine was from the council’s media department. His was via someone at Animal Management and a council parks officer. I decided Animal Management and Parks trumped council media spokesperson, so I assumed I would have

to correct the editorial this week. But wait, there’s more... Later that day, Malcolm got another email from yet another council communications specialist – this one attached to the bylaws department – who said that my editorial was correct and that there were no restrictions on dogs and they could be off leash at Shelly Bay at all times. It all comes back to the wording in the council’s list of restricted dog areas in South Auckland which reads: Dogs are prohibited on Shelly Bay Beach and Kiwi Esplanade from Mangere Boat Club to Shortt Ave, unless for the purpose of moving through the park and boat club and their dog is controlled on a leash It seems half Auckland Council believes this refers to our Shelly Bay Beach, while the other half of the council believes it refers to a Shelly Bay Beach next to Mangere Boat Club. One council parks officer, in what by now was becoming a very long email trail, even said it was all due to a missing comma. It should read: Shelly Bay Beach, and... With the comma in place it would mean Shelly Bay (ours) AS WELL AS the place at Mangere. Yeah, right. But it seems the council’s final word comes from Paul Wilson, Principal Policy Analyst Bylaws, who says in an email: “We are sorry that there may have been a mis-
understanding in information you received from other staff and we will advise them of the differences between the two beaches with the same name and that Shelly Bay Beach in Beachlands has no restrictions so it is not specified on the website.” This is all good for a laugh, but there is a serious side. For starters it has caused a lot of unnecessary tension between beachgoers and dog walkers at Shelly Bay as everyone, not surprisingly, is confused. Secondly it is symptomatic of a wider issue with our Super City: Bigger is NOT better, at least not when it comes to dealing with local problems. The whole Shelly Bay confusion is because our area is not administered and managed by local people (I’m talking staff, rather than the political side). We often deal with people who live and work on the other side of Auckland and who, quite understandably, have little idea about where anything is in our part of the world. And thirdly, why the heck do we need an Auckland wide bylaw to administer our beaches? Surely we can look to find our own solutions to our own issues. I understand that Local Boards will at some point get the opportunity to have a say on bylaws in their own areas so maybe that will be the opportunity to tell our Board members what we want to happen at our beaches.

Loose oil line forces landing • FROM PAGE 1 sea conditions were very nice and I was very fortunate to be close to the marina with some resources available.” He soon discovered the cause of the problem – an oil line had vibrated loose. Dan left his passenger, a friend from Florida, with the aircraft while he went ashore to obtain oil from the local chandlery. While the small plane has an aircraft engine Dan says it has automotive technology allowing it to fly on unleaded automotive fuel and automotive oil. Eyewitness and Air New Zealand pilot Pete Hodgson was at the marina as the drama unfolded. “I looked up and saw blackish smoke coming out of the back of the plane and then the engine stopped,” says Pete. ”I said to my wife Alana ‘that’s not good’.” The plane dipped behind the marina boat masts and disappeared. When Pete and Alana arrived back at their nearby home they found the plane had made a safe landing in the shallows.
Over the next hour and a half they watched from their clifftop property as first the pilot went ashore and then locals and the Auckland Police Maritime Unit aboard the Deodar 3 arrive to offer assistance. Dan says he is grateful to local residents who came to his aid. “I can’t thank the neighbours enough. I’m incredibly impressed with their friendliness and helpfulness – they are very, very kind people.” Dan also praised the Auckland Police Maritime unit. “What a professional and courteous Police department –they were marvellous.” Once the line was repaired and the oil refilled, Dan and his passenger made a safe takeoff, waved on by their helpers. While Dan returns to Florida this weekend, his Searey will stay in its hangar at Ardmore, awaiting its owner’s return in April. Dan says the aircraft is one of only six in New Zealand, although there are 600 worldwide.He first flew his factory certified SeaRey in Florida before having it dismantled and shipped to New Zealand.
Five burglars caught after Maraetai break-in Five burglars were caught by Police leaving Maraetai after a break-in at an Albacore Way property in the early hours of Saturday morning.

Trolley derby races Sunday!
Don’t miss the fun of the BeachlandsMaraetai Trolley Derby this weekend. Competitors will pit their skills against each other in more than 70 downhill races at Omana Regional Park on Sunday. The starters flag will drop on the first race at 8am. There will also be a trolley parade in Beachlands the day before on Saturday. The parade “walk of fame” will leave Beachlands Hammer Hardware at 9am and trolleys will make their way to the Beachlands Chartered Club grounds where they will be on display for all to admire. Spectators can vote for their favourite by dropping a gold coin in the box in front of each trolley. The proceeds will be donated to charity. Race director Baden Russell says it’s all about “coming along to have some fun”. There will be food stalls on site as well.
aira and Adrian Fisher were about to finish a late shift when they received a call from neighbours reporting suspicious activity at an Albacore Way address at 12.45am on Saturday. The property owners also called Police at about the same time after they arrived home to find people on their property. The officers drove down past Albacore Way and found a vehicle fitting the descrip-
tion driving without lights around the rounda-bout towards Clevedon. They found numerous items of stolen property in the silver sedan. “When we pulled them over there were bags, wallets, cash, a laptop cannabis and various ID cards in the vehicle. We believe they have been responsible for a number of recent thefts from vehicles as well as the burglary,” says Aaron.
“We also believe they are part of some sort of youth gang - two were brother and sister, there was also a cousin and two who were partners.” The five were arrested and appeared in the youth court on Saturday. Those of the group over 16 will appear in the Manukau District Court on February 26 facing charges of burglary and one with possession of cannabis. More charges may be

type II diabetes, cardiovascular disease, stroke and even pancreatic cancer.
Tips: Drink water. With all this hot summer weather it is important to keep hydrated, however unless you are an elite athlete, do away with the sports drinks, as water is sufficient. It is also important to avoid constant sipping on sugary drinks (including sugar in tea and coffee). Even lemon in water, which seems healthy, can be damaging to your teeth if constantly sipped.
Snack Wisely. Avoid grazing and choose snacks that are healthy and good for your teeth, such as cheese, vegetable sticks and nuts. Fruit is a great snack but be wary of the sugar (or acid) content of these too. Rinse with water.
Eat sweets in moderation. It is better to consume sweets and sugars in one sitting (such as mealtimes), than throughout the day.

If this happens often enough and for long enough, the enamel weakens and breaks down creating a cavity. Once bacteria enter into a tooth through a cavity, a filling is necessary.

Now is great time to start looking after ourselves for a better quality of life By Fran Pardon On the Pohutukawa Coast we are spoilt for choice with so many opportunities and options to help keep ourselves healthy, fit and, dare I say, looking good! With the kids back at school and the summer holidays sadly behind us, now is the perfect time to follow through on those New Year’s resolutions most of us made back in January. You know the ones... shed a couple of kilos (lose all that Christmas cake we ate!), tone up, take an exercise class, join a gym or maybe even train for a special event like a triathlon. As well as being surrounded by beautiful beaches, easily accessible coastal walkways, regional parks and a forest to mountain bike in, we also have a first class sports and recreation centre on our doorstep at Te Puru offering a diversity of classes as well as a multi-purpose sports ground. Then there are several privately run local gyms. From pre-school athletics (let’s get them moving early) and school age gymnastics, ballet and dance classes to a wonderful variety of fitness activities including sports aerobics, circuit training, boxing, pilates, yoga and zumba not to forget gentle exercise classes for the elderly and the Probus walking group, there is something for all ages and stages of fitness close to home. If you lack motivation, joining a class or a gym with a friend and keeping each other accountable is a good way to get started. Or go one better and hire yourself a personal trainer. We have a number of highly professional trainers who would love to help you reach your goals. We now also have the new Energy Experience store in the Beachlands shopping centre offering a multitude of delicious

no way they can do it, yet when they go to a competition and see the exercises, they think ‘yeah, I can do that.’ “There are even Masters categories for the over 45s, who can have a scaled down version of the workout so they are not competing directly against the young.” Alex used to play rugby and ice hockey. “By the time the container came over with my gear I missed this ice hockey season, Next season I will look at getting into it, but CrossFit does become slightly consuming “The competition side gives me that extra fo-
cus. There is so much to do and so much to learn – even now.” So what is CrossFit? CrossFit is a core strength and conditioning programme which is for everyone regardless of age, experience or fitness level as each workout is scalable. This means that the exercise stays the same but how the exercise is performed will change depending on each individual’s experience and fitness level. CrossFit workouts are constantly varied, high intensity, functional movements; with the goal to improve fitness • TO NEXT PAGE

This is done through a combination of sprinting, rowing, skipping, weightlifting, box jumps, pull-ups, kettle bells, medicine balls, rope climbing and many body weight exercises. CrossFitters get to use lots of different equipment so there’s variety in the workouts. Classes are limited to small groups which means each person re-
ceives personal attention from the coaches. For Perform Fitness owner Jack Holmes, the South Auckland championships is a chance for new CrossFitters to get along and watch Alex in action. “My goal will be for our new CrossFitters to get along and watch ,” says Jack. “We see the everest of the sport on ESPN and it is quite intimidating. But at the grassroots
level where we are, it’s much more fun. “This is for everyone and anyone can do it.” Anyone wanting to sign up for CrossFit needs to do a five week “On Ramp” course of two sessions per week where CrossFit and its basic movements are explained, along with how they can be applied in everyday life.

Beachlands - For Sale: Expressions of Interest I just love properties that are unusual, that make a statement, where you never know what’s coming next, and where the architecture is just perfect for the setting it is in. I knew I’d found one such house when arriving at the front door of this wonderful two storey four bedroom property on the Second View Ave clifftop at Beachlands. To get to the door you walk across a stone bridge over the top of the goldfish in the lillypond below. That’s after first stopping to admire the unusual aloe banksia trees at the entrance to the wide aggregate driveway – at least, I think they are aloes! Around the front of the house, the clifftop frontage is a gorgeous landscape of big rocks, ponds, ground covers and hebes giving a sort of savannah-themed landscape with the added advantage of ensuring nothing will grow tall enough to gets in the way of the stunning view that takes in Motuihe, Waiheke and the islands beyond. Back to the front door, step inside and passages go in all directions, Head right, along a glass fronted passage, and round the corner to a master bedroom with big walk-in wardrobe combined with an ensuite big enough for both shower and bath. There’s direct access to the informal family dining area, or head back along the passageway, and left again into another passage off which is internal access to a double car garage. The garage also has a work area down one side with plenty of bench and cupboard space. Off the same passage is a separate toilet and a laundry.
Back to the front door again, straight ahead and into the open plan kitchen and informal dining area. The kitchen is big with natural wood fittings, including a large bench area. There’s modern gas top stove, oven, double door fridge freezer and lots of storage. Kitchen and dining area in front enjoy magnificent views and outside access. To the left and through to the formal dining room and formal living area, again with magnificent views and outdoor access, with some intriguing shelf spaces. Back to the front door yet again, and up wooden stairs to a communal landing area with room for chairs and coffee table, perhaps a small library? Then on the left and up three steps is a self contained guest wing with its own kitchenette and bedroom. On the other side of the landing are two more bedrooms, one currently used as an office. There are high ceilings throughout with lots of glass allowing for plenty of light and sun.

Duder family enjoys 175th reunion The Duder family 175th Reunion was celebrated over Auckland Anniversary Weekend at Duders Beach. About 150 people attended with one family having four generations at the celebration. Saturday activities included swimming, a picnic lunch, vintage tractor rides, walks to the trig station on Duder Regional Park and the pa site, and an evening four square Naval meal under canvas followed by a family quiz. On Sunday there was a heritage trail walk of Mt Victoria in Devonport, Duders Wharf store and Bake house, Duders Avenue, former family houses, family graves and the Naval museum. Most Duder descendants in New Zealand have one common ancestor, Able Seaman Thomas Duder, who was shipwrecked on Buffalo Beach, Whitanga in 1840.
Duder then became the Signal Master on Mt Victoria, Devonport. In 1866 he bought the Whakakaiwhera Block of 600 acres, (part of
which is now the Duder Regional Park) from Chief Hori te Whetuki. Duder descendants still live on the land retained by the family.

Balinese carver re-discovers artistic flair A talented Balinese wood carver, now resident in Beachlands, has turned his hand to creating unique garden sculptures and water features. Made (pronounced Marday) Adnyana first began wood carving traditional Balinese ornaments for tourists as a teenager back in his homeland. After living in Beachlands for 10 years with his wife Julia, he has re-discovered his artistic flair, this time creating exotic sculptures and garden panels in a durable and long-lasting synthetic stone. “I love carving and trying out different designs,” explains Made. “Each piece I create is one off and unique. It is an original.” Made can spend from three days of full time carving on one panel to more than a week creating a more complex water feature. He loves experimenting and introducing new elements, such as shells and pebbles, into his designs. He creates his bas-reliefs by hand using carving chisels from Bali. The creative process starts with Made visualising a concept in his mind, usually borrowing harmonious patterns from nature which he gently stylises. He then transfers the design, drawing it in pencil on the bare “stone” panel, before beginning the intricate work of chiselling the details. Once finished, each piece is sealed and uniquely finished creating an original masterpiece with a flowing and symmetrical effect that is pleasing to the eye and can grace any style of garden. Gaining confidence in his creative abilities, Made has now launched his own business called Creative Carvings. He has already had interest in his work from a commercial outlet but is keen to create one off individual commissions for clients. “Anything a client would like I can carve specially for them,” says Made. For more information contact Made on 536-4257 or 021 295 2749.

Made has adapted his Balinese woodcarving skills to work in synthetic stone.
Clevedon’s Fireside Bridge Club ready for a new year
Clevedon’s Fireside Bridge Club is back underway for a new year. The club meets every Wednesday from 10.15am to about 2.15pm at All Souls Church hall in Clevedon for friendly duplicate bridge, with usually seven or more tables. New players are most welcome, a partner is not necessary and beginners can even use their “cheat sheets”. A course of lessons will start on February 25 at 9am. Contact
Pauline on 299 7433 if you would like to join the Club or have lessons. The Champion player for 2014 was Robin Elisak, with Judy Ryall just pipping Jill Menzies for the runner-up place. The annual champion is calculated by averaging out each person’s three highest and three lowest scores over the year’s play. The individual trophy was won by Lorna Hampton and the Most Improved player Peter Hill.
All about family since 1923.

Migrants’ role ‘critical’ Successfully attracting and retaining skilled migrants to Auckland is a focus of a new partnership between Auckland Council, Auckland Tourism Events and Economic Development (ATEED) and Immigration New Zealand (INZ). The three organisations have developed the Auckland Regional Partnership Agreement, a three-year plan to work collaboratively on shared priorities. “Skilled migrants have a critical role to play in Auckland’s economy,” says Mayor Len Brown. “Likewise, strong relationships between the Auckland Council group and government agencies are also immensely important.”

Murphys Rd to become two lanes Murphys Road is to be widened to two lanes in each direction between Flat Bush School Road and Redoubt Road The Murphys-Redoubt Road intersection will be realigned and traffic lights added to improve safety. Redoubt Road will also be widened to two lanes in each direction between State Highway One and Murphys Road Mill Road will be replaced with a new arterial with two lanes in each direction between Murphys Road and Popes Road. The Murphys Rd route is used frequently by Coast residents travelling to South Auckland. The work will be part of Auckland Council’s upgrade of the Redoubt and Mill Road corridor, which is needed to support large housing growth in the area. Traffic is predicted to double on the route in 10 to 15 years due to the growth. More than 22,000 new homes are proposed for the area, with about 10,000 planned in special housing areas that are likely to be fast-tracked. Between 2009 and 2013 there were 283 crashes, including four deaths, with a number
of accident hotspots on curves and junctions. The formal process has now begun to give certainty to both existing and future property owners regarding what land is needed for the
upgrade. Auckland Transport has contacted affected property owners directly about the project and is meeting with them to discuss their land owner rights and the planning
