Apologies for the quality... my wife snapped these on her Nokia N80 (3megapixel camera phone) as this beast rolled past her office out at NZAA... so the zoomed shots are a bit icky...

anyone know where it was headed??

Last time I saw it, it was parked up near the ANZES hangar... Its an Air NZ item that is going to be used for flight attendant training :)

Those photos were from last friday (June 1st)... and it was heading away from NZAA... I had seen it also parked down at NZAA...

I guess they were fitting it out and now are taking it to the training college.

As for that india thing... yeah I saw that a while ago... apparently the driver went the wrong way down a street and got blocked in, and couldnt be arsed trying to back it out, so just abandoned the truck and plane and took off! :clap:

Air NZ has there cabin staff training school up in the Mangere industrial complex.
A couple of years ago the cabin staff training moved from the airport up to the new training school.
That is probably where it is going.

Hmm, I know someone there, I could ask her if she knows what's happening with it.
