Student Pilot Creates Aerial Art During Night Flights in Auckland

Auckland student pilot Mathew Leydon has creatively combined skill-building with art by tracing designs in the night sky during his flights. He began with the word “hello,” drew an aircraft, and recently outlined a bat with “boo” for Halloween. His artwork can be viewed in real time on Flightradar24, and he was inspired by similar creations from fellow club members. Leydon aims to challenge his flying abilities while engaging in a unique form of aerial expression.
