Various visitors, small and large

A couple of other bloggers gave me a heads up on some expected visitors to Wellington over the weekend. I did see what looked like a Gulfstream GIV in the distance, but I was not able to get a decent photo. I did however manage to get an OK photo of a Qantas Boeing B737-838 taxying then getting airborne. VH-VXA has been registered to Qantas since December 2000.

The second photo is an Eagle Airways [an Air New Zealand subsidiary - hence the paint scheme] Raytheon/Beech 1900D, ZK-EAE, departing. Lastly there's a picture of a CTC Cessna C172S, ZK-JMC.

Apart from that it has been [another] nice Saturday for flying with a lot of the Club trainers up and flying around which is good to see. Unfortunately this did not include me - the bank balance says "No" :-(
