Love the early morning light in this one, I was waiting for a Saab to take me to Hamilton, about two years ago and snapped this through the terminal window..
One of the places I didn't put in the spotters map was here, right up against the fence near gate 10 at Wellington
This was shot in Auckland from the then new lounge extension, I love that the 733 is climbing out in the background. Its weird, the windows at Auckland allow you to remove the window filter coloring much more easily than Wgtn
And this last one is a real blast from the past. Taken in the early 70's from the observation deck in Auckland, so what you see here is an original NAC 737-200. No woosey hushkits back then, no jetways to keep you dry, nothing. If I turned right you would see a DC8 parked up at what was then the international portion of the original terminal, the bit Qantas currently occupies. Didn't have the foresight to snap a pic of that, was probably dragged away by mother and lectured on "not wasting film in that camera, have you got any idea how much it costs me to develop those photos"...yes mother...
