Out the Window in Wellington

On a recent trip to the South Island, I managed to get these shots out the window on the trip north again out of Wellington, after a transit stop. The light was just great, even through the window, dark skies to the east and sunny to the north.

Qantas New Livery, A330, VH-EBN

Well Qantas have changed their livery slightly, and I mean slightly, with a Font change and a strip of grey in front of the red tail and a sliver of grey also at the back of the Kangaroo.
Looks ok, but not much of a change really.

Heres my first shots of the new livery worn by, VH-EBN as it departs Auckland for Sydney.

Singapore Airlines Cargo, Sunset Departure

Good to see nice weather in Auckland, even though winter is on the way. With the sun heading north, it sure does make for some great golden hour photos at this time of year.

Seen here departing for Melbourne with a very light load, is SQ's B747-400F, 9V-SFP earlier on in the week. In the second to last shot, an Air NZ A320 managed to photobomb just above SFP.

China Airlines A350-900, B-18207

Well it sure is good to see another airline operate the A350 into Auckland.

China Airlines has become the second airline to operate the type into Auckland, along with Cathay Pacific.

Been trying to get some decent shots before the winter sets in and the days getting shorter which will make it hard to get some pics as the arrivals will be in the dark for winter.

Well lucky to get these of B-18207 arriving on the 6th April in the last of the Golden Hour.
