From the RNZAF Facebook page:
"An RNZAF C-130 Hercules arrived at Nelson airport yesterday, signalling the start of Exercise Wiseowl 98.
Ex Wiseowl 98 is a Pilot Training Squadron deployment designed to test military student pilots in elements of military flying including low level flight, navigation, formation flying and deployed operations. Between 80 and 120 personnel will be based at Nelson Airport until 15 May.
The public will be able to get up close and personal with the aircraft and talk to Air Force personnel at our Open Day on Saturday 10 May 10:30am to 2:00pm. If you are in the Nelson and Tasman region we encourage you to come to the airport and see what we do. All ages are welcome."
