Not NZ3816 But anyway - May be of interest? This was the second orion for today 1st showed up 9am and 2nd 12.30pm probably headed off to BOP After Hamilton.

I wish we had a RNZAF base in Christchurch. All we have now is a new subdivision and a helipad.

Hi HamiltonWest (again). I also saw the Orion at Tauranga but didn't manage to get any pics of it

It was called WIGRAM , home off the RNZAF .. first International NewZealand Airport , in its latter years .. i need not to go on .... hang on YES I BLOODY DO !, oh boy Connor , you really opened a 'can of worms' with this subject !

Not wanting to break any forum rules, but it's not like where short of space in Christchurch, why did we have to destroy an airfield? Why could they of just moved outwards, like everybody else?
