Title: What aircraft fly to your home airport?
Post by: zkvac on February 14, 2008, 07:27:53 am
Here in Wellington (NZWN) we get:
ANZ and Vincent 1900's (C&D)
ANZ and Vincent Dash-8 100/300's
ANZ ATR72-500's
ANZ and Qantas Boeing 737-300/400's
Pacific Blue 737-800's
ANZ A320's (IAE engines)
RNZAF 757-200
RNZAF Hercs
RNZAF P-3 Orions
RNZAF King Airs
Lifeflight Metro
Soudsair and Air2There Caravans

Then because WLG is the capital, we get government aircraft, ranging from 777's (UK) to A330's (Phillipines) to a TU-154 last year (Polish AF- that was something)
Also lots of bizjets, and the occasional 767.

SEA gets just about every ac except for the new Airbus. I am glad SEA isn't able to handle the new Airbus cause I live right under one of the major flight paths for landing and would hate to have that beast flying just a few hundred or so feet above my apartment  :shock:

The "airport" thats actually closest to me is a private grass landing strip in a field just out of town, one lonely little Cessna goes in and out from time to time :roll:

As for airline traffic...will have to go about 30 miles to the east.  Little Fort Wayne (FWA).  

Airline Traffic:

Northwest......CRJ-200's, Saab 340
...(DTW)...
Continental....B1900 (My first flight ever was on that little bird to CLE.)
...(CLE)...
Delta.............CRJ-200, ERJ-135, ERJ-145
...(ATL & CVG)...
United...........CRJ-200
...(ORD)...
American.......ERJ-145, ERJ-135
...(ORD & DFW)
Allegiant Air...MD-80's  (Currently the largest passenger aircraft to have scheduled service.)
...(AZA, LAS, FLL, PIE, & SFB)...LAS will be discontinued in March.

Loads of private aircraft and quite a bit of military action sometimes.  F-16s are the most common being based there.

Kittyhawk Cargo used to have a major base there...they up and shut their doors awhile back...so now very little cargo goes in and out, mainly a couple UPS 757's and Fedex 727's not much at all now.   Before KH left...during Christmas rushes we would even get cargo 747 classics  8)  Probably never see those here again :(

Used to have US Airways to PHL.  TWA used to fly to STL...remember being on their little J-31's...rivets rattling, and duct tape on the wings :lol:

It may be small but its best airport experience you can get from check in to departure to return 8)

We need more destinations though.  Mainly one east coast and one west coast.   JFK or EWR...LAX or SFO.  Going to Asia is a pain as I found out...have to be routed all over the place.  Dreading my next trip back to Taiwan due to the extra stops.  At least if I could get direct into EWR or JFK I could take SQ to SIN or CX to HKG.  Do the long haul in the middle instead of the end :?

Hanover (EDDV/HAJ):

Mainly A320 and B737 variants. Also ERJ's, CRJ's, F50/70's, Dash8's and ATR's. Regular visitors are also RAF VC10 and L1011. Some russian aircrafts can be seen on a more or less regular basis (Tu-154/214 and YAK42D). Bigger sized aircrafts are very rare to see here (B747/757/767 or A330/340 or DC10).

MCO

We see pretty much everything Western built that has wings.  Haven't seen too many Russian built aircraft (an AN-124 a while back) and the USAF doesn't come round too much anymore, though I have seen C-130s, C-141s and C-5As here.

My home airport is lucky to have any plane fly into it.  I have to drive 2 hours to get to the first airport with a commercial flight.
