Aerosmith Activity


Rock group Aerosmith touched down at Christchurch on the evening of 23 April using what has become the regular mode of transport for musicians visiting the region, Marcplan's Embraer Legacy VH-VLT.  It arrived from Sydney and transported the lead musician and entourage to Dunedin for their one and only NZ concert on the evening of 24 April before returning to Christchurch in the early hours of 25 April.  It then embarked on its return journey to Essendon later Anzac Day.

Incidentally, Marcplan had the honours of flying Black Sabbath from Auckland to Brisbane 23 April utilising their Gulfstream 450 VH-MBP which arrived earlier the same day from Essendon.

In addition to VH-VLT, Westfield's Gulfstream 5 N36GV made what is believed to be only its second NZ visit arriving at Dunedin from Sydney on the evening of 23 April carrying support band The Dead Daisies..  The Gulfstream seems to spend 50% of the time based out of Sydney and 50% of Newark and sits beside two Global Expresses in the Westfield Group, N18WF and N36LG.
It departed Dunedin on Anzac Day morning for Sydney.
