the 75 didn't land at nelson winkyy.gif it may have done a touch and go but cant picture it.

i no that 737 made a full stop when there was a show on there. there were no pax and just about no fuel just. and for takeoff they put in enough to get to NZWN it just made it in and out i think the date was 1985'6?

c130 doesn't go into nzns much of the 25 years living and flying in the regain i have only seen the c130 do a low approach over shoot once and the p3 winkyy.gif

I've seen the USAF LC-130 in there (went throught it) and im sure I've seen the RNZAF ones in there a few times (brain could be playing tricks on me though...) And they are longer, wider, higher and a greater MTOW than the 737-200 so I guess that would class it as "bigger"

hmmm, i may have asked a bad question, having a quick look at wiki, suggests that the C-130J (which i have seen do a touch and go at Nelson) does have a greater empty and MTOW than the 737-200....
to be honest, i have never thought of a 737 bein bgger than a herc huh.gif

MTOW...Herky bird is 70 tonnes vs B732's 49.

To answer the new question: "Wingman" last did this 2 months ago, (although he is constantly doing it) and if he doesn't answer the question without looking it up, he's just being plane lazy biggrin.gif
