Of interest at AKL International in the rain today was the Samoan registered RC690B 5W-LOR. It is one of 2 690B operated by Talofa Airways on flights between Samoa, Tonga, and American Samoa (the other being 5W-TAL). Acquired in December 2018 from the USA, 5W-LOR was originally built in 1978 and arrived in Auckland yesterday from Nuku'Alofa, and headed down to Napier today, presumably for maintenance.
Avionics upgrade over next few weeks
