At the end of a dreary day...

... there is not much to do except to share a couple of pictures and an old war movie.

The pictures are of two types which are rapidly disappearing from NZ skies - the Boeing 737-300 and the Raytheon B1900 - which Air NZ are in the process of withdrawing from their fleets.

Boeing 737-319, ZK-NGI, operated by Air NZ, but not for much longer

Raytheon B1900, ZK-EAR, operated by Eagle Airways/ Air NZ, but also not for much longer

The video is an old one called "The Final Countdown", Be warned that the plot is rubbish, the acting worse and the script... well... never mind. It does however have lots of footage of Tomcats, Corsairs, Zeros [actually I think they might be North American Harvards painted up to look like Zeros...], some helos, an aircraft carrier and what might be some historic footage. Great if you have about 1.5 hours of your life to waste! Enjoy [if that is possible!! :-)]!
