Wasn't the nicest day on Monday but tried for some photos anyway.
Can anyone tell me the old rego for this 737 fuselage?
Looks like an old Air NZ frame?








Went to the racing for a couple of hours at Ruapuna:











Finally, the reason for the trip was the Pearl Jam concert and it was awesome.
Still a bit jaded but getting there, it was a great night out.

Nice Shots Gavin thumbup1.gif That first 737 fuselage was Jetconnects 737 300 ZK JNO. It now serves as a mock cabin for BBJ interiors etc.

This. ZK JNO was retired by Jetconnect in May this year and withdrawn from the register on the 25th of May. Replaced by 737 400 ZK JTS. Ex-JNO was sold (somewhat ironically) to Air New Zealand's ANZES Altitude subsidiary and does what Daniel said. The wings, tail, nose cone and weather radar have been removed (as you can see winkyy.gif). FYI it was built 1989 and is ex- VH TJD with Qantas as of 2005. Too much information maybe? laugh.gif

Nice pics btw Gavin. Love the 757 and the Pacific Blue. Racing pics: kinda funny that Albany Toyota sponsors a Ford, isn't it?
