[ATC view] RARE E190-E2 visit to Tauranga

[@Levi.Collier]

Great capture! The Embraer E190-E2 is a good looking aeroplane for sure. Keep up the good work!

[@NonyAviationNewZealand]

Thank you!! Lots of exciting trip-reports coming up soon...

[@Levi.Collier]

Awesome, can’t wait!

[@MovieSpottingBerlin]

WOW amazing catch! Pionair?

[@NonyAviationNewZealand]

Thank you! Yes, Pionair is a charter operator in Australia and this aircraft ferried over from there to New Zealand.

[@dan.aviation2000]

Great video man! That's a great vantage point your in to catch that!

[@NonyAviationNewZealand]

It's definitely the best spot of the whole airport!

[@zf5167]

very commonplace in the USA but great to see here in NZ

[@NonyAviationNewZealand]

Didn't think there were many E2's in the US?

[@zf5167]

jetblue and american eagle@@NonyAviationNewZealand

[@NonyAviationNewZealand]

No, those are classic E190s, not the new E2

[@zf5167]

whoops! i'm more of an A320 family fan@@NonyAviationNewZealand

Imagine if there was a nonstop air service from Tauranga to The Gold Coast.

[@NonyAviationNewZealand]

No room at Tauranga! The newly expanded terminal is already too small. Much more likely from Hamilton with their larger catchment, and they already have an international terminal that just isn't being used

[@isaacsaviation]

Do they just let you in the tower?

[@NonyAviationNewZealand]

No, I had permission
