NAKI !!! You've only had it a few days :(

I stand corrected ...NGI is a 737 .

Thanks as always for looking . I was stoked with these paints ..... and I've found one of NCG in her new clothes , that will follow later.

Thanks for looking gents (again) that DC-10 is very basic , but more than adequate for my purpose , its an HJG model. The A-350 is a CAMSIM model , both of course are priced right ...NZD 0 :) Two very good looking a/c .

I think i caught him here (DHL/727) on a divert ... but back then , no camera.

Nice ..(and all the other 747 shots) especially like the first one though...love the bare metal look on the big iron (or any iron). What 747 model is it? Thanks Naki ... its a POSKY model .

Nice trip .... great shots :thumbup:

Very cool! I'll be over there in about a month too...looking forward to it.

Very nice. Great to see some local shots. I've been looking closely at the Carenado 1900D for a wee while now, as something bigger than my single engine GA lineup but not in the tube-liner space that I don't really feel ready for. I've not bought it yet for a couple of reasons. Air NZ is retiring them soon which would eliminate the whole "this is what they fly" feeling, in which case maybe I should be looking at the ATR or Majestic options. The second reason is that I've got plenty of learning to do with the single engine stuff, and have the Turbine Duke V2 ready to go when I want a...

I have seen them out off Christchurch and seemingly using a lot off runway, they where vaunted as the worlds longest range airliner in the mid 1990s , that maybe the answer, a full load.

Thanks Greg :)

Thanks Sean ..... these are mainly POSKY models .... and a couple from skyspirit . You can download the packages from the site i mentioned in the previous post ..... some are fs9 port overs , some don't have a panel ....... check out the site , its worth it . Perfect for an outside only guy like me :) Problem is hanger space , and over heating pc :ph43r:

Well that's a thought .. did old Soapie like ... pip pip old beans ... ask some kids what a Tangent is they may be drawing a line from that pre rusted can and come up with answer ..... or not :huh:

I was doing a little research and found a 'Wings' magazine Sep 1981 was the debut of the QANTAS 747SP into Welly, I should have scanned the photo and item.

Brings back memories :) I wonder if that hole in roof is glazed... would be a heck of a draft... This aircraft replaced the the Starlifter, they put the telescope in the front portion on the C141 , on the that aircraft it was open to the elements, the operators were open to the outside , think I recall up to 26,000 ft course well wrapped up and on O2 , I don't know anything about the the SP , there was talk that they were looking at a sealed observatory due to the optics getting better, be nice to see a doco on the aircraft and its missions here. I had the chance to look through the...

Its funny 20 years ago, aircraft had no true shape, look head on to and the tail looked like an aerial wire, it has come a long way and when Project Sky released their 747 I could honestly say I spent a good hour and a half just walking around the undercarriage .. simply studying the model . It was the Wigram build that Adrian and Ian Brausch come into the mix with in 1998 with their P-3 Orion and the C-130 , then Clive Ryan put in the 2D photo real C-130 cockpit .. revolutionary times that was .. WOW using keypad for your cockpit views WOW!

:thumbup: Nice ...... you seem to be have become a "rotor head" of late Dave .... not sure if thats good or not. But , nice screens all the the same ..... :thumbup: Trying to be a 'multitasker' - never too late :P .

Then do it Ian .... dont tease us with "i better" Was just Something pointed out at the SOH, course Matt aka 'Jensey' being away and only bringing up the subject ... amazing what ya find in the back hanger :)
