More Ansett NZ Memories - Dash 8s


Keeping with it being 25 years since the launch of Ansett NZ here is a glimpse at some of the Dash 8 fleet...

DHC Dash 8 ZK-NEZ with Ansett New Zealand titles but still with the Ansett Newmans logo. Photo taken at Queenstown on 24 October 1987 by S Lowe. I can't see getting access for a photo like this now!

In the orignal New Zealand star colour scheme are ZK-NEZ (above) at Glentanner on 17 April 1988 and ZK-NEY (below), again at Glentanner, on 19 September 1987. Photos : S Lowe
