Hobsonville was an RNZAF seaplane and landplane base. At the bottom of the photo is the arched roofed Sunderland hangar and to its right the Catalina hangar. Both still exist. The two saw-tooth-roofed hangars further to the right also still exist. The hangar above and to the right of them is gone. Wartime steps have been taken to camouflage the base with roads across runways, painted hangars and concealed hardstanding. The seaplane base closed in 1967 when Sunderlands were withdrawn and helicopter operations ended in 2002. Photo from: RNZAF/Air Force Museum of New Zealand

The company became Hawaiian Airlines on 1 October 1941. NC15062 later acquired by Reeve Aleutian Airways as a spares source. Forward fuselage survives at the Alaska Aviation Museum, Lake Hood.

NZ2423 went into storage very soon after arriving in NZ. It was placed in a rubberised cocoon and moved to Ardmore aerodrome by barge and truck. In 1952 it was reactivated and flown to Hamilton for a further period of storage. In 1954 it was finally delivered to No.2 Wellington squadron and would end up making the last RNZAF P-51 flight in 1957. NZ2423 is in civilian hands and being restored. Photo here shows it at the old Mangere airport (now part of Auckland International) around the time it was flown from Ardmore to Hamilton. Photo from: Des White/Air Force Museum of New Zealand

A wartime airstrip built by the French and greatly expanded by the Americans. A base in 1942-43 for USAAF B-17s, B-25s and B-26 and RNZAF Hudsons. Main role appears to have been as a staging post for aircraft heading to Australia or to the frontline in New Hebrides (now Vanuatu). Disused in peacetime and overgrown with vegetation.
