Sorry for the average vid quality. I'm finished school for the year now so you might see me spotting more often.
This 1900 got stuck in between a 733 landing and a 738 on finals so they taxied off the rwy for a bit:






767!

Haha funny you should say that, It happined to my Dad once as a passenger departing for a flight to Auckland he drove me and my brother to the airport then we were to drive his car back home but he had put the keys in his pocket and boarded the plane so just as the pilot was about to start up my brother realised Dad had the keys and ran to the gate to tell the chick and she alerted a ground guy and he ran out to the plane and grabed the keys from Dad :lol:
Yea I know point less story :P

So good to see a 76 back at WN again. The aircraft to airport mismatch of that combination always appealed to me.

Thanks for the post.

Don't 763s need less runway room than a 738? Think I saw that somewhere.

Was that plane hired out or were normal passengers onboard?

For Takeoff, I think so James, but landing, im not so sure-

I think it was a Charter, but quite possible that it was a regular service

From MRC Aviation: "Qantas operated Boeing 767-300 VH-OGJ through Wellington on their regular QF47/48 service in lieu of the regular Boeing 737-400 to accomodate the LA Galaxy soccer team and its superstar player David Beckham."
