Arriving into Auckland from Sydney last night was VH-VWO, another Pilatus PC12 for Sounds Air... Their website suggests this may be registered as ZK-PLV. It will be interesting to see how it is used.

Nice one Sounds Air. That's 5 PC12's and 5 Caravans now
ReplyDeleteI saw their Gold PC-12 in Nelson yesterday afternoon. What function / routes is that operating?
ReplyDeleteThe golden one often comes to Christchurch they must move it around the network. This 5th one could be a spare as they only need 4 to cover all the existing flying.
ReplyDeleteThe gold one was in and out of Paraparaumu a couple of times on Sunday.
ReplyDeletePossibly in place of the caravan doing the Kaikoura work (someone above said they saw it in Nelson)
DeleteLooks good in Soundsair scheme. PC12s must be going well for them, good to see another
ReplyDeleteI think the PC12 is a great investment for Sounds Air. I personally would like to see them take over the NSN-PMR route as I don't see Origin lasting too long... other routes considered in future could be WSZ-CHC, WLG-HKK, NSN-NPE, BHE-PMR and NSN-NPL
ReplyDeleteInstead of expanding quickly, I'd like to see an alliance between Sounds Air and the other small airlines operating around the top of the north island where a passenger could travel around the country with 1 or 2 stops.
