I think they do - due E190 & B737 Bird strike back in 09.

I was driving past the Airport just before and were this photo was taken from last week - the Airport company have pushed the fence line out to the road so no more photo's like this unless you have 4x4 with a sunroof or a ladder.

This looks to be the reason why the fence line was pushed out - to fit the Temp bridge that was across the waikato river at the narrows for the last year or so threw the fence line onto the airport property for ? reason.

Their were a few P-750s Parked outside the hangar at Pacific aerospace this morning - the Temp regs look to be Drawn on with a felt pen or a Permanent marker?

Or Rather Taped on

if anyone's interested - they reconstructed the airport fence as mentioned above back to it's original shape/condition today and the bridge is being de-constructed inside the airport boundary.

Probably the same one Ian - Looked like the pilots were having a boring time of it - must of diverted to hamilton due the weather delays? as it just landed shutdown and the pilots just sat in the cockpit for an hour then they fired up and left again.
