Challenging Times

This week it has been the turn of the Bombardier Challenger business jet to be the dominant type visiting NZ, a switch for the procession of Gulfstreams earlier in the year that then switched to a gaggle of Falcon 7X.
We've already mentioned a few of the arrivals in a previous post, but to sumarise:

Challenger 604 M-AAEL arrived Auckland 25 March from Cebu via Cairns and today has flown to Queenstown.

Challenger 605 N567YX arrived Auckland 26 March from Shanghai via Biak. 

Not previously mentioned is Challenger 604 VH-BLM. It has made its first trip to NZ and arrived Auckland 26 March from its Gold Coast home via Sydney. VH-BLM was delivered to the Gold Coast just on a year ago arriving 31 March 2014 from Honolulu and Pago Pago. Business Aviation Solutions is currently listed as operator of this 1999 model Challenger.

ANZA Aviation/Jetcity Challenger 604 N604AU arrived Dunedin 27 March from Sydney.

In other jet news, Global 5000 B-KMF flew from Auckland to Queenstown 27 March while Citation X N950M departed Nadi for Kona while in the opposite direction flew Global 5000 N50DS.
