While passing Ohakea today I think I saw over on the far side of the airfield at the southern end , a Metroliner fuselage , possibly the one from near the Palmerston North airport ? Looked like the tail was seperated but close . Does anuone know anything else about this ?

It will be used as a fire fighting/crash rescue training aid.

	I know there's a lot of money in aviation because I put it there.
