Yes, the wind was blowing hard today. Gusts up in the mid-40 knots and crosswinds always make for exciting times at Wellington airport and today was no exception. This really was one of those days where I was very grateful to be on the ground! Needless to say, there was plenty of opportunity for photography and I came away with just over 150 photos for the day. This and following posts will highlight just a few of them.
Anyway, on to the first set of photos. This set contains:
Boeing 737-319, ZK-NGH, operated by Air NZ. Take a close look as this aircraft is airborne on runway 34 just past A8! It must have been lightly loaded.
Airbus A320-232, ZK-OXD, also operated by Air NZ. This picture was taken just as it hit some turbulence which swung it to the left.
ATR-GIE ATR72-212A, ZK-MVD, operated by Mount Cook Airline [Air NZ]. The two photos show the start of the missed approach. It landed safely later on.
Bombardier DHC8-311, ZK-NEQ, operated by Air Nelson [Air NZ]
Bombardier DHC8-311, ZK-NEP, also operated by Air Nelson [Air NZ]. This provides a nice contrast between the new and old liveries [ZK-NEQ having the new livery].
