It will most likely just be doing crew training or something and making a few approaches (but not landing).
Its done similar before to many other airports including Tauranga.
BTW heads up to anyone over at Tauranga - There will be about 60 aircraft tommorow on the Flying NZ Air Safari. They will be staying the night as well smile.gif

It's a shame the 757 won't be on display at WOW this year sad.gif

It sure is impressive watching the Air Force boys (and girls) put it through its paces!
