Nelson today...

I flew down to Nelson on an overnight trip today, 18 December 2017, and caught up with a decent photo of Originair's JSH... I was hoping to get Air2there's MYH but no sign of it - it eventually arrived just as I arrived back to where I was staying...

My ride south from Hamilton to Wellington and then on to Nelson, Air Nelson Bombardier Q300 ZK-NEC
Aerowork's NZ Aerospace FU24-950 Fletcher ZK-DDX
Not sure if Originair's BAe Jetstream 31 ZK-JSH was off to New Plymouth or not...
Aerial Surveys' Cessna 402 ZK-MAP 
A disappearing colour scheme - Mount Cook Airlines' ATR 72-500 ZK-MCY
And a raft of Bombardier Q300s - ZK-NEA
ZK-NEM
ZK-NFA
and Jetstar's VH-SBI

    MYH hasn't been seen at PPQ for a couple of months now. Long term maintenance somewhere perhaps?

      That’s awesome. I was on my annual cabin crew line check on that flight.

    The J31 didn’t look very full. Such a shame as they’re offering a great service

      It didn't appear on Flightaware so I wonder whether it was doing the NSN-PMR service or not. It came it from BHE this afternoon about the time air2there was due but didn't carry on to PPQ... so was it at BHE for maintenance???

      Just to save you all speculating, it wasn't full as it had to go up to PMR for maintenance after our morning PMR schedule so no PAX. Air2there have been using JSH to cover some of their service while their Caravan is undergoing maintenance which is why it come in from BHE Steve :).

      Thanks Originair... I presumed that JSH was off on a maintenance flight on Monday and then operating the air2there service on Tuesday. Thanks for the clarification!
