By far the best livery Air New Zealand has had to date 😍😍😍

[@ZKaviation]

Agree with you 100%, the Silver Fern and Black is awful, ANZ has lost the plot! I cant think of any other airline with two "symbols" (Fern + Koru) on their aircraft? Qantas doesn't have Skippy and a can of XXXX Beer on their aircraft!

[@MGAviationNZAircraftVideos]

+Tim Gorman Most definitely 😂😂👍👍👍

[@t8polestarcyan22]

I wonder what will our Boeing 787-9, 777-200ERs and 300ERs will look like with that livery?

[@thomashart5321]

T8PolestarCyan And now the 787-10

[@uknewslink]

I’m still full of awe at the 747 even when it is close to being phased out.

[@mmhuq3]

Thanks I like the RR engines. Brings back memories

[@andrewfoster259]

Brings back memories from when i flew on Air New Zealand 747-400 to NZ back in 1997😀

[@jotyers7845]

very nice aircraft the 747

[@jotyers7845]

To bad they are being phased out by Air New Zealand

[@aussieboi82]

What a great video. Really good. Always nice to see Qantas at Christchurch.

[@themadmgtow5196]

Certainly pre 1995 as Air New Zealand adopted the Pacific wave livery in late 95 I clearly remember watching planes leave Wellington with the Pacific wave livery in March 1996

[@gbrown9663]

The old colour scheme on this girl looks good than what they have these days

[@NoTaboos]

They had to get rid of the DC10s as soon as possible, after leaving one in Antarctica.

[@chriskeentechnician]

Ah yes, the queen has arrived 👑 ✈️

[@sergejkarl2149]

And now we can add Lufthansa to the list!

[@abecoulter8550]

ah the whine of the darts

[@jotyers7845]

ZK-OKM should get a new livery e.g in the old teal green and dark blue style just like the old 747-200s that Air New Zealand used to have .

[@jotyers7845]

+Jo Tyers just like ZK-NZW on this video.

[@MGAviationNZAircraftVideos]

777-200 would look better tbh

[@thomashart5321]

Mount cook Airline Anyone know why it’s “Airline” and not “Airlines”

[@MichaelKing-sf8cc]

Those were the days when air new Zealand operated wide bodies out of Christchurch now there`s nothing. They all operate out of Auckland. Much better livery to better than today's ghastly black and white.

[@markcorry878]

I have to agree. I was born in the mid- seventies and I can remember the Red/Orange hybrid livery after the merger of Air New Zealand and NAC and then the change over to the Teal and blue of Air New Zealand from the mid 80's to mid-90's. I prefer that livery to what it is now.

[@thomashart5321]

Tbh I like the black fern and koru

[@NoTaboos]

@Perry Tito pathetic

[@franzchong5889]

@Perry Tito mostly all a320 and variations now.i remember their 767's twenty one years ago.

[@michaelgrey7854]

I dont know why everything that represents New Zealand HAS to be black? When did that become the default colour of NZ?
