Hi

Does anyone work for (or know anyone who does) Air National in Wellington? I am interested in getting some detailed pix and having a good look around one of the ex Origin JS31's

Vincent is suppose (so the rumour goes) to be buying a couple of ex Origin Jetstreams so maybe you could talk to Tom?

I think you will find they are JS41's

I know some people who work there but they are ex origin leased J32s. The 31s are still in nelson. If you go there you will be able to go out on the field and take heaps of photos

41s are no go now, getting another Dash 8-100 instead. I guess we'll have to wait and see whether these rumours are true..

arent they fenced off though?

Air National have a small maintenance base at Wellington.
I went down there in October and they let me come inside and wonder through the jetstreams.
Just ask

No harm in asking.

Cheers
Daniel
