Operating into and out of Woodbourne after dark was an unidentified RNZAF C130 Hercules.
25-Sept-08
Another RNZAF C130 Hercules was noted operating in the Woodbourne control zone before heading for the west coast, during the morning.
An RNZAF UH-1H Iroquoi was noted operating overhead Woodbourne during the morning.
During the afternoon Life Flight Trust BK117 B-2 ZK-HLF was noted doing training in and around Woodbourne and the control zone.
26-Sept-08
The first note of the day was an RNZAF King Air NZ1885 which arrived at 1000. It departed half an hour later for Ohakea.
Noted on the ground at Woodbourne this afternoon was Air Freight New Zealand Convair ZK-KFL. It appears this has been in at Safe Air since its arrival on 10-Sept-08. The pilots for this were noted arriving on NZ2473 from Wellington. KFL departed for Auckland shortly before 1600 as AFN694.
Also noted were two Airwork/Airpost Fokker F27 Frienship's ZK-POH and ZK-PAX. This is unusual as normally only one F27 day stops at Woodbourne.
It also seems that Air New Zealand travel from Blenheim may finally be being dragged into the 21st century, with the noting of two automatic ticket readers being installed at the gates inside the terminal. This will hopefully mean an end to the old dot matrix printed boarding passes, and the hand checking of passenger tickets/mainfest as they board the aircraft. This should hopefully make things easier for the few Blenheim passengers who choose to use online check in as well.
Arriving around 1440 VFR from WLG was Cessna C525 Citation Mustang ZK-MUS
Also arriving around 1450 was RNZAF airtrainer NZ1996
