Air Force Flight of New Zealand
FLYPAST ALERT: NORTHLAND AND MANAWATU-WHANGANUI!
The Air Force Heritage Flight of New Zealand are excited to detail our planned 25 April 2022 Anzac Day Flypasts.
Northland
Northland played a significant part in New Zealand’s Military Aviation Heritage, including the extensive facilities at RNZAF Station Waipapakauri. The Air Force Heritage Flight is recognising the importance of Northland on Anzac Day by conducting a series of flypasts with Harvard ZK-ENB “NZ1076”. Purchased new by the RNZAF in 1944, NZ1076 is an important piece of New Zealand's military aviation heritage.
Note that the flypasts will be conducted in accordance with Civil Aviation Rules and will therefore be no lower than 1000 feet above the ground. Whilst the Harvard will not be low nor fast, we hope that you enjoy its undeniable presence and character!
