A Glimpse at the Hauraki Gulf Operators

I have managed some plane spotting while staying in Auckland over the last few days... I was especially delighted to get photos of the new Hauraki Gulf operators...

Winning the prize for the most upmarket aircraft, are Barrier Air's Cessna Grand Caravans. Here ZK-SDC is on approach to Auckland on 21 January 2019. Barrier Air operate scheduled services from Auckland to Great Barrier Island and Kaitaia.

One of Fly My Sky's four Britten Norman Islanders, ZK-EVO, on approach to Auckland on 21 January 2019. Fly My Sky operate scheduled services from Auckland to Great Barrier Island and Whangarei.

One of the two operators, Air Auckland operates two Cessna 172s from Ardmore to Great Barrier Island and Whitianga. Above ZK-CXP and below ZK-MDV at Ardmore on 21 January 2019
 

The second new operator is Waiheke Wings which operates transfer flights from Waiheke Island. Cessna 172 ZK-CBZ was at Ardmore on 20 January 2019

Waiheke Wings is a subsidiary of Auckland Seaplanes. Their DHC Beaver ZK-WKA was at Ardmore on 20 January 2019 and wins the prize for the most exotic aircraft operated in the Hauraki Gul

The only operator not flying into Auckland is Sunair which operates services from Whangarei, Whitianga and Tauranga to Great Barrier Airline. Piper Aztec ZK-PIW was at Auckland on 12 January 2019
