This year the RNZAF decided due to some budget constraints it would not be able to fund an open day at Whenuapai or Ohakea. Instead they opted to display at this years Warbirds over Wanaka show.
“We could not justify having having two major air shows so close together so it was decided to make our major public event in 2010 in conjunction with Warbirds Over Wanaka” said Anna Sussmilch the Senior Communications Adviser for the Air Force.
“At this stage we expect to return to the Base Open Day format in 2011, but details around where and when are still to be finalised” she said.
We’ll keep you informed and let you know when dates are set in 2011.

NASA has a “critical responsibility” to the flying public to develop environmentally responsible solutions to the nation’s most pressing aviation problems, Administrator Charles F. Bolden Jr. said Wednesday.
Christchurch International Airport Limited (CIAL) has advised the airport will remain closed until at least 1pm.
The increase of passengers to the Queenstown area has given the airport operators the opportunity to expand part of their baggage handling services. A new building that will be starting soon is expected to optimise passenger handling.
Anyone travelling between Tauranga and Christchurch and between Invercargill and Wellington are set to get a large boost in capacity.
There are many videos on the internet that you can clearly see are ‘fakes’ but this video from AvWeb.com really made me sit up and think what a lucky guy 22 year old Dino Moline was.
Wile trolling though the abundant supply of aviation videos on YouTube I came across this one. It’s a time laps of a 747 getting a new paint job.
