Serious Cargo Hauling New Zealand Style!

Featured Replies

Shalom and greetings all my pals,

Presenting a nice cargo hauling New Zealand style from NZAA Auckland Airport located 13 miles south of Auckland city centre to NZNV Invercargill Airport  located 1 nautical mile west of the city centre of Invercargill at the bottom of the South Island of New Zealand. Delivery of goods from Auckland to Invergargill is very important for the small city's population!!
