I was just watching a video of the time of aircraft flying in and out of Wellington in 1997 video is on youtube. Just a bit of a steep back in the past anyone willing to share any photos they have taken
in New Zealand of aircraft before the year 2000 ? It can be anything Airliners, balloons, Ga, RNZAF, or vistors.

Go a decade before that date, you would have all hell breaking loose with the famed Bristol Freighter ... course back then Wellington Intl Airport looked like a couple cow sheds and barracks really looked the part ... today it looks great least Jiggling the views are far better than our brand new Cattle shed we have here

Really disappointed with Christchurch airport build .. no real spots to shoot .. and even a simple thing to photo the building you are attacked by security telling ya you can't do that .. some people really need a reality check, course so did the designers ... NZCH was famous for its observation deck today .. YIP a bloody cattle shed.

It is now, one thing had they designed the terminal with a layer external carpark on top would have given a choice spot for the camera guys.

Little shock to me ... sure bet's a rubbish job they did on the previous paint with fonts nothing to watch they used ... be interesting to follow up the this latest livery.
