Many years ago (circa 1978), I got to see a couple of the NZ A-4s up close. I was on a rescue team repairing one of our disabled A-4's [Marine Corps] on a cross-country at NAS Dallas, TX. Two of these were sitting on the ramp right next to where ours was parked. They were factory-new and we did a walk around oohing and aahing. Not sure why they would have been at NAS Dallas, maybe just a stopover? Pretty cool to see them flying here.

Used to see Skyhawks all the time in our area Central North Island, King Country area back in the 80s and 90s... Seen their last hurrah flight back in 2002?

These things got massive air brake flaps in the fuselage, they scream like hell on a short landing.

Old Aussie skyhawks.

🥸👍🇦🇷💪

RNZAF have not fhigther planes now, no? Excuse me my bad english of argentinian high school. 😮😁👍🇦🇷💪

Amo queste auto ma online si trova poco peccato ... Bel video

Aaahhh yes ...Riding the scooter

Gosh look like fun to fly

❗ 'Promo sm'

Shame NZ gave up it's fast jet assets....so short sighted.

Kiwi pilots. The Brits spent weeks building a range target out of concrete, re-inforced with lengths of railroad track for the Kiwi pilots flying Vampires ( or Venoms ) The Kiwis wrecked it in 3 days.

buger helen clark clapped outv old banger not the macchis

Pero lo que hay que destacar es la abilidad y destreza de nuestros pilotos

Nosotros los argentinos lo consideramos nuestro avión de combate

Ni ustedes los EEUU sabían lo que eran capaces de hacer ésas formidables maquinitas nosotros los argentinos sí y lo hicimos gracias EEUU

Looks fast af for a subsonic aircraft...

Ask to coventry, ardent, antellope, wordsword Glamorgan.... even ask to Invencible..... regards from Argentina. We lose Malvinas War, but we didnt baf

Love these bird, watching them get shot off and recovered was awesome!

I was in the RNZAF when they arrived in Auckland by boat and all were towed out to Whenuapai, I was at the bombing range a few years later and one of Skyhawk went pass us below and the Pilot waved out to us, they where boys with good toys.

Back in 1977-79 these would fly low over our neighborhood in Christchurch. We would only get 2-3 seconds of a look but it was enough to thrill this young man and make vivid memories that last to this day! Loved those low banking turns right over my head. Could even see the pilot’ s helmet.

Love the ZZ Top. A-4's were in use in my early Navy career. Nice to see this footage.

Esos caballitos se doman en 🇦🇷....

I can't believe new Zealand got rid if it's airforce -_-

Si lo ve un inglés , tiembla

Should have kept the Skyhawks. Good use of Tax Payers money. Helen Clark is a waste of Tax Payers money, a parasite on the Kiwi tax Payers, the never ending gravy train. Best Wishes to Frank Sharpe and every one from 2! Squadron, 14 Squadron & 75 Squadron Kiwi Red The Best of the Best

so embarrasing when Auntie Helen cancelled the F16s and took years and hundred thousands of dollars to sell the A4s.

Rumour has that when the A4’s were retired they were replaced with Tiger moths! But there’s nobody left in nz to fly them. They are all in Australia.

Such a shame I wasn't alive to see these legends fly

Great memories.

Cool vid!.. I spent a week with 75 Squadron...got a ride in a Tbird doing practice bombing runs up Northland.. thanks 👍🇳🇿

hey nice car man. what supercharger did u use? The NC has no supercharger that whines really right?

Great video

God dam the boys could fly the fuck out of those things

Were you able to diagnose and fix?

Differential has full oil?

I've got an 2007 NC Sport and the Idler Pulley (the small one in the middle) is visibly wobbling by about 3mm. I stupidly didn't check the Tensioner Pulley (to the bottom left of the idler in the middle) but they are typically more heavy duty. I'm getting the idler replaced tomorrow with an SKF compatible pulley and Dayco belt for £110. Much better than Mazda prices!

Get back to this.

Great footage ruined with music

Huge respect to those RNZAF guys. Extremely capable & crazy low flying. Damn shame with the end of the fast-movers for NZ...

Brilliant !!!

Ah, Dome Valley as seen from 'Ammo Boxes'.

Great to see these cars still racing

Nice car

Magnificent video, awesome video footage

These buggers used to fly over our house all the time...low....on purpose...cuz we called the base and asked them to continue. The base commander was expecting another angry call complaining about the noise etc....he was so shocked and grateful that we actually appreciated it, word went out to all the aircrews....any plane going over us, would do so nice and low and they'd 'wing wave' to us, they knew exactly which house was ours...we had a Canadian flag on a pole....the good ole days
