A Different ATR 72 at Tauranga

 Photo’d outside Classic Flyers recently is this ATR 72-212 painted up in JNP Aviation Training colours:

JNP Aviation Training Ltd is a Category One aviation tertiary provider specialising in ground operations in aviation, and is part of the JNP Aviation group which provides airport services to 50% of New Zealand’s regional airports.  You can see their website HERE  I guess I never knew that!

The ATR 72 is the ex Mt Cook Airlines and Air New Zealand ZK-MCJ2 which after retirement was dismantled and trucked to Tauranga then re-assembled by Classic Flyers.  You can see its previous history at: https://nzcivair.blogspot.com/2024/02/atr72-212a-zk-mcj.html
