New Zealand Radar

I could be interested, depending on the price.
I did apply for the equipment through FR24 a couple of months ago and have heard nothing back.

I am also an admin on the weather forum that was linked in this thread a few pages back (I can't link yet) so if the price is right I may be able to encourage a few of those station owners to participate.

> So how many NZ RPi feeders here have converted their's to MLAT yet?

Yep - upgraded mine - here's hoping some more NZWN PI users follow so that we can start to resolve some of those B1900s

I've upgraded though it won't make any difference as the FlightRadar feeder already did MLAT so another feeder at the same location won't help.

I am guessing from your nic that you are based in Kerikeri? (I am now based in Kerikeri myself)

That would be correct, shouldn't be too difficult to find my website - no links needed

Spotted a couple of Air New Zealand Link aircraft out to sea, going to & from the Chathams. Is this normal???

I took a similar one the other day, WHat I suspect we are seeing is a close cluster of receivers (near enough to only 2 points of a triangle) making the calculations, not 3. So the horizontal plane is having issues with positioning

Like a good altitude! Extends the range somewhat

Learjet dropped into Palmy.. keeping with the anonymity I've blanked it :P new to my dbase

Napier actually! Yep MEL-NPE at FL450 but a FA9X just flew MEB-AKL and entered the FIR at FL470!

That one was outside my range :P peaked about 190NM on the solid track for the LJ by the looks.

Air New Zealand's next A320 (ZK-OXJ) is currently at Muscat, on its delivery flight to Christchurch. Which 737 gets the chop when OXJ enters service?

The list I saw a while ago had NGI retiring first with NGJ in early September.

ZK-OXK returned to Toulouse from Hamburg on Thursday so it should be delivered in a couple of weeks...

9H-GGG appears to have its winglets back on and doing some proving flights some 2 years down the line
