classic aircraft at Paraparaumu, NZ


An historic photo of the Paraparaumu airport in 1955 when it was still the main airport for Wellington, replaced by the present Wellington airport in 1959. 

For more details of the aircraft, see the book The Aircraft of Air New Zealand and Affiliates since 1940. (via National Library)

Two de Havilland DH.84 Dragons in the front, possibly a Lockheed Electra in the right background and two Douglas DC-2/DC-3s next to it.
