Planefags keep an eye out for F-18s in NZ… No.740096

Training? No.740150

need to know if AF or Navy… No.740173

Information.

NZ has no fighters. The "NZ Air Force" has been constantly reduced by successive governments to nothing more than some rubber band heli-chop-cops and a few helium filled party balloons. Maybe a cut-out balsa wood WWII plane or two lying around here or there but with no plasticine in stores to balance the noses they're pretty much useless too.

The NZ Air Force training manual is a photocopy of a photocopy of '100 ways to fold a paper plane'.

No joke.

My point is that military air traffic is so light here that ANYTHING flying from ANY branch of ANY military is of note.

Anything whatsoever!

For the fist time two US F-16s are visiting along with a C-17 Globemaster.

Wanaka is a tad north of Queenstown, the alleged Southern Hemisphere bolthole of the Elites as it's already a playground for the rich and famous. NZ is on the Dylan Louis Monroe V.3092018 Q-Map as Doomsday Preps as the bottom left.

The RNZAF is making a significant contribution this Easter's airshow with at least one example of each of their aircraft type on display, except the P-3K Orion.

The air force will also bring down its Harvard T-6 to join with 12 other Harvards in the Marsh Harvard Salute.

Taylor said the United States Air Force had created "a huge buzz" by confirming they are bringing the F-16 Fighting Falcon Jets for the first time, along with their C-17 Globemaster III demonstration team.

The Royal Australia Air Force's Spartan transport aircraft will make its Wanaka debut along with the Australian Hawk jets.

The French Air Force is returning with its CASA transport aircraft.
