also as i left i saw what looked like a nz 757 on approach but im pretty sure it only had 2 engines. Missed its callsign but i did here that it had i think 54pob..was anyone there that can tell me what it was or did anyone log anything on sbs. I also am going to presume that the display was for some kind of show across the road. If anyone can help with the plane id that would be awesome.

nope. There were 6 in formation smoke and everything and also a further 2 on the ground using the call sign for the formation "roulette 1" i believe it was. But yea could of been a practice display en route. I couldn't see through the fog at 6 this morn if they were already there or not

Just checked 16right and there is a log for NZ7572 about 40mins before i saw it on approach. Does anyone know when it will be departing?

p.s sorry for the dodgey thread title, was on my phone posting and it was hard enough to type as it was!
