Yeah the A340 is a big plane and looks very nice with its big wings. But unfortunatly I never saw the -500, only the -200, -300 and -600.

Here's a quote from from the 3'rd July this year:

I guess there would have been a few spotters at the airport + a few official photographers, so it would be more than likely that some photo's will make their way onto a.net or some other aviation photo site!

It seems I was wrong, when I wrote this back then, because there have been NO photo's published from that first day :cry: :shakehead: :shakehead: :cry: But I have found 2 photo's on a.net re Emirates to CHC, one is from the 4'th of July, the other is from the 28'th November! So after 8 months , 300 posts & a lot of heartache from when I first announced that Emirates was coming to Christchurch with my first post on this site, I can now post some photo's of their planes @ CHC; here they are YAY ! : www.airliners.net/open.file/657397/L/

P. S. I noticed they are from the same photographer, well done to that man :!: :lol: :lol: :lol:
