25 Years ago - February 1987

These days Boeing 767-200s are a rare sight in New Zealand... but in February 1987 they were a common sight in New Zealand... Above, Air New Zealand's ZK-NBC at Christchurch on 2 February 1987 and below Qantas' VH-EAN on 28 February 1987. Photo : S Lowe
 

An exotic visitor to Christchurch was Skyworld's Boeing 707-323B N712PC. Photo taken on 6 February 1987 by S Lowe

Being used by Air New Zealand was Royal Brunei's Boeing 737-2M6 V8-UEB. It had a stint with LAN Chile after this photo was taken and the following year it returned to Air New Zealand as ZK-NAZ. There are small Air NZ titles behind the airstairs. Photo taken at Christchurch on 28 February 1987 by S Lowe
