Had some time up my sleeve this morning, so decided to go and spend some time spotting at NZAA.

Here's just a few of the pics I took.

Thanks guys. In the short time I was there, I saw four 777s & two 767s.

I've just bought a Nikon D90 with 18-200mm lens. Bit better for spotting than the compact I've been using up till now. biggrin.gif

Nice pics!

Its funny to think I saw some of these aircraft pass over my house just a few minutes before you snapped them!

Does anyone know what route the Qantas A332 was doing to Auckland?

Currently the A332 is operating QF25/QF26 AKL-LAX-AKL.

We had Convair,s fly out off Wigram when the airfield was in operation , these were with 'Pionair' , the photo,s showing lengthen,d '5800' least that what i think they called it really lost its looks , with the age off the hulls being older than our Herc's it make you wonder in the next few years the C130 could be used in the civil setup as many around the world do .
