I was at Auckland Int. Airport today and managed to get a few new snaps:

1) ZK-JNF, a Qantas NZ Boeing 737

2) ZK-OJI, an Air New Zealand Airbus A320 coming into land

3) A side view of ZK-OJI

4) ZK-OJI again, seconds before touchdown

5) ZK-NEE, an Air New Zealand Dash Q300 which I saw last time.

6) ZK-NEE touching down on runway 23R while a Qantas 737 holds its position

Sorry there is not as much variety this time, I was only at the lookout for a few minutes and seemed to miss all the wide-bodied jets. Also, the quality looks a bit weird, I think I had the camera on the wrong setting so please excuse that too.

On the way home I saw a weird coloured plane and could not make out what airline it was, so perhaps someone could help me. It was orange/red on the top and tail and white on the bottom half of the fuselage. It was landing at NZAA at about 2:10pm and looked like a B767/777 or A330 ❓

Cheers,
CT

Hi flightcheck,

It could well possibly be the Australian Airlines 767, it was the only livery that crossed my mind, yet as you said, they don't fly to NZ ❓ ❓ ❓

I have since found out that it most proberly was an Australian Airlines B763, as they have been used to operate a couple of flights to Auckland that are normally just regular Qantas services lately. (Aus Air is a subsidy of Qantas.)

There is even photographic proof here: http://www.airliners.net/open.file/1053151/L/

it seems as though your camera captured the quality of the weather, and the density of everything.
