The Sultan of Brunei flew in, for whatever reason unknown. He doesn't specify things. He'll either fly on this or his 767 (which also operates for Royal Brunei) Either that or Royal Brunei started a new route...

QUOTE (SA227 @ Mar 27 2014,9:26 PM) Exactly Ian! I was in charge of this project and we could have operated at 3am quite happily, just not for the 3 weeks we required so rather than fork out for the noise testing the schedule was changed to 6am. Potentially the odd metro might pass through as we will be using Nelson as a technical alternate at times It really has gone, well mental! ... I would have thought Nelson is more populated and closer to the airport, ..... solution to the problem ..... people who complained, now there address's ..... hold back their mail for two...

Just joint us in a line dance, I wonder if it was a rec photo flight looking for an illegal crop - a least possible.

Rick brought himself a helicopter with a on board camera, I'm waiting to see results, he's in the NZCH airspace . QUOTE (Splitpin @ Mar 22 2014,9:25 PM) I fly kites .....

Thanks Deeknow!

Pity the weather was not great , it would have been worth a Schnoze at it .. one of the pretty ARBUSTs /unsure.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :unsure: border= 0 alt= unsure.gif />

Saw the cluster on FR24 way off the coast of Canterbury at altitudes between 64ft and 130ft midday yesterday. Thought they were meant to be way up in the stratosphere?

I know a while ago they were having to carry a lot more gas than they wanted to because many of the enroute airfields were not capable to handling the Code F A380. So the distance between the available emergency use airfields was quite distant necessitating the carriage of a lot of fuel to cover the depressurisation scenario. That would have hurt.

QUOTE (Trolly @ Feb 27 2014,11:25 AM) Where has it been announced that the Q300's are to be grounded? Can't see the Feb 27th release on the QF News Room page yet? It appears that the initial strategy was to ground all of the -220 and -300's but it is now to be a severe route pruning. This makes more sense as why would you want to cancel out your domestic feeder aircraft? It really would not surprise me at all to read the NZ Herald one morning to find that the QF CEO has been found dead with a bullet hole in the back of his head. Feelings there are running very high and...
