new generation Boeing 737-700

Nauru Airlines new aircraft arrives home

The new generation Boeing 737-700, piloted by Captain Vodrick Detsiogo, Captain Kristian Keke and Captain Dylan Rimmer, was greeted by a wave of spectators lining the length of the runway on either side.

Approaching from the west VH-INU descended to 1,500 feet for a fly-over of the runway before turning left heading northward for a full circle around the island and returning to the airport.

This time the captains conducted a 100 feet fly-by approach along the length of the runway before climbing back up to return for the final descent and landing from the west.
