The Westlake Boys High School old boys bumped into each other at their military flying training as Royal New Zealand Air Force (RNZAF) pilots.
Flying Officer Denzel Williams 24, Flying Officer Aaron Kurte 24, and Flying Officer Tyler Waters 25, all attended the school in Auckland's Forrest Hill.
Kurte and Williams were in the same year and played hockey together, while Waters studied in the year above them.
Despite following different flight paths after leaving school, the trio found themselves on the same pilot's course at the Royal New Zealand Air Force Base in Ohakea.
All three have passed with flying colours with six other new pilots.
Kurte made coffee as a barista while he saved for private flying training.
Williams did odd jobs for a few years and travelled with Kurte before joining the Air Force.
And Waters studied a Batchelor of mechanical engineering at Auckland University where he graduated with honours.

Auckland-based company Computer Recycling is hosting more than 30 e-waste drop-off days.
During the first two events this year, members of the community delivered nearly 22,000 kg of e-waste.
More than 300 people flocked to the First Presbyterian Church in Papakura to drop off 8462 kg of e-waste.
This included more than 70 printers, 56 old home appliances, 63 televisions and other electronic goods.
Meanwhile Greenbay High School saw 450 people and drew 13,512 kg of e-waste to be diverted from landfills.
During the events, Computer Recycling will be raising funds for the children's Variety charity and will be matching the donations.
The next two events will be held on February 27 at Mt Albert Baptist Church and on March 6 at Massey University East Precinct Albany Expressway, in Albany.
Do you plan to take advantage of these e-waste days?
Or do you prefer to take your rubbish to the dump?

Jo graduated from New Zealand College of Chinese Medicine with a Diploma in Wellbeing and Relaxation Massage. This is in addition to her specific certificates in Sports Massage Therapy and Advanced Sports Massage Therapy.
Jo is keen to know as much about the anatomy and physiology of the body as possible in order to make her best placed to offer therapies that will help her clients with injury recovery, muscle tension release, pre sports warm up, post sports flushing and of course stress relief and relaxation. Our wellbeing is ultimately important and all too often we put ourselves last whilst looking after others first.
Jo is a keen runner with 3 marathons and countless half marathons under her belt. Paired with 30-day challenges for strength, she is strong and offers variable massage pressures to suit her client’s preferences and needs. She understands the demands of training and the frustrations of injury.
For a limited time we will be offering a free half hour massage or a half price one hour massage to any clients new to her for massage therapy.
