yea there the country's airliner

there not that big,

if your wondering about a job there, they only take people who citizens of New Zealand

and just like in australia, they have an over load of pilots

they operate a fleet or 747-400's and 777 for the longer haul internations, 767s, a320s for the shorter international flights, and 737s, dash8s, saab340s and i think maybe beech 1900's and BAE146's for the regional trips.

They also bought ansett australia a fair few years back, but bad management by that company made it go bust, and greatly reduced employment prospect into the airliners in australia

now all that remains is 3 airliners: qantas, jetstar and virgin
abou 50-60% of qantas pilots now were ex ansett
