It looks like ZK-NCH will leave NZ soon?  Sorry about the fence and it was a quick shot as I passed by late last evening. Colin |

Crusty old relic. Quick, take the money and run! Hope the cheque doesn't bounce.

Hope it's not clapped out like those Skyhawks! ;D Oh hang on, they've managed to sell it - obviously they don't have Ernst and Young & the NZ Labour Party running the sale.  |

You'd think so; but then one of my ex-bosses managed to trade-in three photocopiers to Konica that we were leasing from Xerox - so maybe it isn't so difficult to do after all?

Maybe Air NZ Engineering were contracted to repaint and prepare the aircraft for the new owners, on behalf of the leasors? Makes sense as they would have maintained this aeroplane for years.

Yea it was painted at Richmond, Australia. Sort of a redesign of Qantas colours isn't it? I happened to catch NCN the first one to finish its lease arriving back from Richmond on the same day as it happens Tony Blair was leaving AKL in a BA 777. www.airliners.net/open.file/1024394/L/Got a shot of the BA 777 leaving too. www.airliners.net/open.file/1028522/L/NCH has certainly run up a few miles since it first came in to the fleet. |
