Nice shots mate Is the Vincent Dash still operating NZ flights?
Did ya manage to catch any of the Pacific Blue Embraer?

[mfraser]

We did have the Vincent B1900 and Dash8 flying some routes in and out of HN sometime ago but they've been absent for some time now. They were flying Eagles HN-NS leg and the odd flight to WN and CH for Air Nelson and Mount Cook.

Scott , the Twinstar looks more the pocket rocket .. compared to the recent release of the Beech Duke , this thing looks the part

Very true Ian however I havn't flown in the Twinny yet but I do agree it does look more like a pocket rocket.
