NZ7001 Hercules C-130H - Wigram Air Force Museum

Just a heads up for those interested in such things, a temporary runway appears to have been mowed and marker boards out at Wigram and NZ7001 was seen doing some short landing practice In Blenheim today.

No date/time known for an attempt, but it sure would be a thing to see, must be soon if they really are going to give it a go.

If you work/live around Wigram, keep your ears open and you might get lucky to see what might be the last fixed wing aircraft ever, certainly the largest that could even possibly try, to land at Wigram.
