In recent weeks Air New Zealand Virtual Airlines has seen a steady increase in pilot applications and activity.  There are more pilots flying for Air New Zealand Virtual Airlines then ever before and the VA has been quite successful.  Recently our virtual airline took delivery of a brand new Boeing 777-200ER aircraft which went into service on the Auckland-Vancouver route on flights ANZ10 and ANZ11 respectively. 

Within the next short while Air New Zealand will start retiring the older 747-400 fleet which has server the virtual airline well with the newer Boeing 777-200ER aircraft.  Within the span of 18 months Air New Zealand Virtual Airlines has completed over 700 flights which comes out to an average of about 2 flights each day.  The Air New Zealand Link operation has also been explanded with new B1900 and ATR72-500 aircraft that operate domestically and feed our major hubs in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch.

We hope that our success will carry on into 2010 as we celebrate the new year and continue to hope for continued success throughout this year.  We also have new aircraft repaints for FSX including the ATR72-500 and Dash-8-300 aircraft in Air New Zealand Link livery for freeware.  The FSX Airbus A320 and Boeing 747-400 aircraft are also now available.
