USAF C-40 [B737-700] at Wellington
A special visitor seen on Sunday is this USAF C-40, aka Boeing B737-700.
The aircraft is still parked up on the RNZAF Air Movements apron. I have no idea of which VIP is visiting. Note all the extra "lumps and bumps", especially on the top of the fuselage.
Seems like it is USAF. From the only search result on Google that ranks above this page for "20042 C40" !!

Just checked and can confirm this is not this aircraft's first visit to Wellington.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the details mate. I picked up a site that indicated it was USN not USAF. Doh!!
