Back in town...



Back in town at present is Chathams Pacific's Fairchild Metroliner ZK-CIC. Normally this ship plies between Tongatapu and Vava'u. Meanwhile, Great Barrier Airlines' BN Islander is in Tonga while Chathams Pacific's Islander A3-LYP undergoes maintenance.

    Man i'd hate to travel on an islander all the way to Tonga. Wouldn't that be past the Islanders range??

    CIC flew back to NZ to ferry a new turbine and horizontal Stabilizer for CIB.
