Odd sightings at NZCH

[Splitpin]

Hi team....thought these might be of interest Seems PACBLUE and Singapore have new trainers, but dont look to closely as the base quality isn't that great .

Ive done a few others, but i dont think i can post them for copyright reasons (airliners.net) etc.......I wouldn't take credit for the original anyway, but some people might get a bit odd.
Interesting evening at Harewood today, wind was swinging between 120 and 240 deg, mainly southerly, but pilots were reporting NorWest at 100-200 feet , as well as smoke haze from a large fire just south of the field.
I was waiting for one of the LC-130's to come back, but it no showed, so the only pic worth showing from tonight is NZ557 into a smokey low sun sky.

Anyway, enjoy.








Cheers

Cheers Ian, i just missed getting some landing shots of the C-17 tonite .......do you know if their flight info(arrive/depart) would be public information? , never seem to be able to catch him or the skiers.
Have a good weekend .
