Aug 9, 2022 · Given how close they came to the RNZAF being responsible for the 2nd largest air accident in NZ history, and that the ice flights are a quasi airline operation for which the civilian passengers should reasonably expect part 121 (airline operations) equivalent levels of safety, return flight without touchdown is the only way to achieve the ...

Dec 2, 2018 · However this accident was on the airfield (unless the Corsair subsequently went through a fence), aircraft stated to have swung off runway and overturned. Causes included an oily windscreen (hardly uncommon on Corsairs!) and pilot inexperience. "Both arms seriously injured by canopy flying shut". Definitely the end of Wright's flying career in ...

Nov 28, 2007 · I don't think, in these progressive, proactive, globalised and multilateral times that NZ should stick with all that outmoded tosh about requiring RNZAF pilots to be Kiwis.

Oct 29, 2024 · The Andover visit was front page news in the local newspaper possibly the Nelson Evening Mail with a photo of the aircraft and the RNZAF pilot. I'm trying to pinpoint the date of that occasion and the aircraft serial number as I remember seeing it in the paper at that time and I'm a local Nelson lad, so I'm wondering if anyone here might know ...

They visited Hamilton Airport and apparently put on a very good display that frightened a lot of people because they came low up the Mystery Creek valley and up over ...
