| Thanks to Warwick for sending through this pic of their Jetstream 31 ZK-JSH, tractor and hangar at Nelson taken this week. I'm looking forward to flying Originair and Kiwi Regional next month on my way home Wellington |
This blog started off by focussing on NZ's smaller 3rd level airlines, past and present. It has evolved to trying to present some record of NZ's domestic airline operations and some of the larger charter operators, interesting NZ international airliner movements and photos I have taken around the country.

Hope you manage to get on a kiwi flight. .. I wish all the best for kiwi regional adds some much needed color and variety to the aviation landscape. ..
ReplyDeleteOne question. ... North Shore aerodrome. ... what upgrades/possibilities of having the likes of saabs/j32s and q300s...? paraparaumu was "just" a light aviation aerodrome.... before air nz operated q300 flights took off...
No Hope
DeleteBearing in mind however that PPQ was 'Wellington Airport' for a while back in the early days. Can't see North Shore Aerodrome ever becoming anything major
ReplyDeleteLooking at Google maps. guess it will be a little hard to add 500 meters to the runway
ReplyDeleteNo chance. It's short, narrow bordered by a road and close to the motorway and unsealed areas extremely soft when wet.
ReplyDeleteDo ever so like Originair's livery. Really suits the rakish looking Jetstream. Hope the airline does well and Keeps to the back routes.
ReplyDeleteYou are spot on. It really does compliment the J32 and the interior is also very smart
DeleteJust a curious question. .. if you started a airline and you used a livery such as the ansett nz shooting stars or the mount cook orange yellow blue and lyly color scheme. .. are they copy write even though ones bankrupt and the other is now brought by air nz
