Very nice shots. Sharp and clear. Even though I see them fly over my house everyday, I'd be glad to see more! biggrin.gif

Brilliant shots, I remember the place well. Easy access to get some nice action shots.

ZK-MMM is operated by Golden Wings, a charter operator based at Nelson but owned by a private family.
ZK-MAN is the Talleys machine, and that is a King Air 200.
ZK-PGA is Auckland based Citationjet CJ4 operated by charter operator Pacific Jets and available for charter.

Vinnie's also had one of their J31's in/out of Nelson on Friday, wonder who they were moving back and forth.

Keep the Nelson snaps comin!

If you got the chance to head over to Motueka towards the end of next week the RNZAC national competitions are being held there - will be lots of out of town GA aircraft visiting, including myself in the trusty Slingsby T.67. smile.gif

And last night I was able to spend a couple of hours with a guy who showed me the process of changing a fuel filter on a Dash 8 at Air Nelson's Tecnical Hangar!
On behalf of myself I thank Air Nelson for this awesome opportnity
