For Queenstown-born pilot Antony Sproull, flying is part of the family story.

Through Air Milford, Antony carries on a three-generation aviation legacy shaped by family, hospitality and a deep love for the place he calls home.

For him, the freedom of flying is about more than the view. It’s the privilege of showing people the beauty of his own backyard, from familiar peaks to the remote corners of the South Island.
