Andrew Bond may have missed out on the Air New Zealand ballot for the commemorative flight but the controversial charter to Erebus organised by Mike Pero has piqued his interest.
Pero is the Christchurch businessman who has been accused by Air New Zealand of capitalising on the national tragedy.
But when Close Up spoke with Andrew, he said he has already talked to Mike Pero about the flight and plans to meet him next week to discuss getting on board.
Mike Pero joined Close Up live.

I as a mum of four children welcome the findings of the report of childcare for under 3s. Many of my friends are ECE teachers who comment on long hours babies spend there. This report is about what is best for the child. My kids have all attended preschool/kindy for differing lengths of time. Young children attending long hours at preschool are usually from higher income homes where the reasons for returning to work is about standard of living and careers. Well done Bob

Why is it all about the mothers doing things wrong? Where is the emphasis on Dads doing the parenting? Of course, women are the ones who have to stay at home.

Mike's interview on the breastfeeding furore was well done. I find it disappointing though that the Breastfeeding Council couldn't concede that fathers being so intimately involved in their baby's life is a wonderful support for the mother and so special for the new family. My husband bottle fed our three infants their bed-time bottle with expressed breastmilk as his special time to connect without the women hovering about. Piri shows great example to other dads that they can be involved.

Breast is best debate - I'm saddened that La Lache league have bullied the smoke free folk into taking out Piri Weepu's feeding his child a bottle - how do we not know it was breast milk in that bottle, his wife had lovingly expressed, so that Piri could have the special bonding time with his child that comes through feeding them?
