The Queen Arrives In Auckland

Wow, what a sight, the best aircraft of all time, in my opinion, and it sure was great to see the Queen of the Skies, passenger version arrive into Auckland on the 28th April.

Qantas up graded their QF145/6 SYD-AKL-SYD service the mighty B747-400ER, due to disrupts caused by LAN Airlines delay disruptions.

VH-OEF with the One World Livery had the honours of making the visit to Auckland.

Come back again soon, real soon.

Sichuan Airlines A350-900, B-304V

Well the sun is slowly starting to set further in the north with the summer coming to an end, which means great sunset shots in Auckland.

I actually quite like the A350 and it's the best looking plane Airbus make.

Here's Sichuan Airlines A350-900, B-304V arriving early in the evening on 23L.

American Airlines - Afternoon Arrival

American Airlines usually arrive into Auckland early morning, so an afternoon arrival does not normally happen. Back on the 14th Feb AA82 had a technical issue just over an hour out of AKL heading for LAX and was forced to turn back to AKL.

B787-9, N831AA was the aircraft and seen here making an overweight landing back into Auckland.

You have just got to love the wing flex of the B787's

RNZAF Seasprite NZ3612

A surprise visitor to Auckland on the 5th February with the RNZAF's Seasprite NZ3612 taxing out, unusual, for 23L. I don't think he needed full length either. Anyway it was a nice surprise to see the Seasprite at AKL, all be it very briefly.
