Airways New Zealand is required to consider the best interests of the community. It didn’t. Find out more. This time it’s our community. Next time it could be yours. Support us.

Plane Sense from Plane Sense

Official Information documents indicate that Airways (and its subsidiary Aeropath Limited) designed and promulgated the DMAPS flight path on technical grounds without regard to section 4(1)(c) of the State-owned Enterprises Act 1986, namely that it is required to be “...an organisation that exhibits a sense of social responsibility by having regard to the interests of the community in which it operates and by endeavouring to accommodate or encourage these when able to do so.” These words mean that Airways New Zealand owed and still owes procedural fairness and substantive obligations to affected residents independently of the Airport’s obligations.

This is one of many issues with the 1 December 2022 flight path change, including legal and safety concerns involving Wellington International Airport, Civil Aviation Authority of NZ and Wellington City Council (as a shareholder).
