ZK-TEC (cn 2011) Taken by my late father-in-law G H Downes on an obviously fine day in Wellington, this Electra bore the Maori name "Akaroa" (Long Harbour). Delivered to TEAL (later Air New Zealand) it was unfortunately written off in a crew training accident at Whenuapai on 27 March 1965. |

ZK-TEC (cn 2011) For my 2000th successful upload (if accepted) something oldish. Taken at the then still under construction "new" terminal at Essendon. Before TAA and Ansett-ANA moved in, the 3 international airlines (QF, TEAL, BOAC) used the apron. Tasman Empire Airways Ltd had not yet changed its name to Air New Zealand. This aircraft, "Akaroa", was delivered on 14 Dec 1959 but crashed at Whenaupai Airport NZ on 27 Mar 1965. |

ZK-AMO (cn SH1559) (Museum of Transport and Technology) A bygone age of luxury in the lower deck of a Solent 4, no longer we see the cups, plates and saucers. A flight from Auckland to Sydney would take about 7.5 hours with a capacity of 45 pax in 6 cabins on 2 decks. [Nikon D70] |

ZK-AMO (cn SH1559) (Museum of Transport and Technology) Sorry about the searchlight but this monster almost fills the building at MOTAT 2. This is the only remaining example of a Solent 4 left in the world. [Nikon D70] |

ZK-TEC (cn 2011) Little did these onlookers at Gate 6 know that this TEAL Electra "Akaroa" only had a few weeks left of its life. It was written off, fortunately without fatalities, in a landing accident at Auckland on 27 March 1965. Note the Safe Air Bristol 170 ZK-CAL in full flow behind. |

ZK-TEA (cn 2005) Passengers disembark from TEAL's Lockheed Electra turboprop "Aotearoa" at Whenuapai, Auckland after the flight across the Tasman sea from Australia. Three Electra L-188C aircraft were bought in 1959 to replace older Douglas DC-6 aircraft on the trans-Tasman routes to Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. In March 1965 one Electra (ZK-TEC) was destroyed in a training accident at Whenuapai, fortunately without loss of life. TEAL became Air New Zealand on the 1st April 1965. |

ZK-TEC (cn 2011) TEAL was the international service now amalgamated into Air New Zealand. Seen here at Whenuapai before Auckland Airport shifted to its present location at Mangere in 1966. This aircraft named "Akaroa" crashed at Whenuapai on 27th March 1965 with no fatalities. Note the Comet 4 of BOAC to the right in the background. [Nikon Coolpix 990 and slide adapter] |
