  1. How many of the 1900's are to be with drawn from service due to this change in scheduling ?

  2. There are four white tails parked on the grass at the maintenance facilities. Only six in service at the moment. The Palmerston service is pretty much the air bridge linking into the remaining routes served by Wellington and Christchurch.

    1. Thank you. Quite fitting that HLZ - PMR will be their final route given that this route (plus HLZ - WAG) was Eagles first scheduled route (and the three had been part of Eagle's air taxi operations before then).
