Transpac, which is equipped with de Havilland Dragons and Herons, also has two twin-motor Aztecs and two single-engine planes, one of which is fitted out as an ambulance.
Another Aztec aircraft will join the fleet before the end of the year.

One new service that was inaugura ted recently links Noumea with pic turesque Hienghene on the north east coast, where an aerodrome has just been completed.
