Bye Bye Trislanders

At the Great Barrier hangar at North Shore today, there was a lot of activity going on dismantling their three Britten Norman Trislanders.  These aircraft have been inactive at North Shore for quite a long while.

 ZK-LGF...

 You can see a rack of spare wings in the background.

 ZK-LOU2....

and ZK-LGC2.

These three aircraft are still registered to Great Barrier Airlines Flight Operations Ltd which is the old Great Barrier Airlines.  Their current fleet (including Islander ZK-FVD in the background) is registered to Great Barrier Airlines Ltd and painted up as Barrier Air  You can see more about the new airline at http://3rdlevelnz.blogspot.co.nz/2015/08/barrier-air-new-name-to-barrier-and.html.

Does anyone know where they are going?
