Western Global Airlines Boeing 747-400BCF N356KD


Touching down at Christchurch during the early hours of 19 June was Western Global Airlines Boeing 747-400BCF N356KD. The ex Japan Airlines and more recently Atlas Air Boeing converted freighter flew direct from San Bernardino, California as WGN3145 carrying a spare number 1 JT9 engine for NASA's Boeing 747SP N747NA which has been unservicable since the middle of the week. 

Western Global Airlines, established by former Southern Air founder Jim and Sunny Neff, is a recent startup in the air freight industry based out of Florida operating a large fleet of MD11 freighters and recently acquired 747-400's.
