Air New Zealand & NAC 737-200 Poster

The 737-200s were flying around New Zealand (and I think maybe even trans-Tasman too) for many decades from 1968 until they were finally retired in 2005. NAC first operated the 737-200 starting in 1968, and Air New Zealand wouldn't operate them until the merger of NAC and Air New Zealand on 1 April 1978. The third livery depicted is a modified hybrid livery of the second NAC livery depicted. Only the 737-200s and Fokker F27s wore this livery.

There is one 737-200 that I purposefully didn't include, that being ZK-NQC, a 737-200C (combi). However, I felt that that particular aircraft is so interesting that I'd make a seperate poster/post about it alone.
