35 years. Same beanie. Same dedication. ✈️

One of the best things about marking 75 years of Fieldair is the chance to celebrate the people who've been part of the journey — and Pete is one of those people.

Pete joined Fieldair in January 1990, starting out on DC3s, Fletcher and Cresco top dressing planes, and Convair 580s. By the mid-90s, he was on night shift maintaining the Air New Zealand Saab 340, and not long after became a Licensed Aircraft Engineer.

Over the decades, Pete built up ratings on the King Air C90, B200 and Jetstream 32 aircraft, managing inspections for airlines including Air Wanganui, Air2There, and Originair.

And he's still adding to that story! Pete is currently working toward becoming Fieldair's Part 148 Aircraft Manufacturing Manager, helping establish Fieldair as the place to go to get aircraft cables manufactured in New Zealand

35 years of showing up, doing the job properly, and apparently never losing the beanie.

Stories like Pete's are what 75 years of Fieldair is made of.

Absent: Riley Burns

Between them, this team brings over 175 years of combined experience to some of aviation's most technical challenges.

We're proud to take on the complex jobs others won't, backed by 75 years of serving New Zealand's aviation industry.

Another successful overhaul from our Components Section team. ✅

The team recently completed a full overhaul and test on a D107320 Fuel Booster Pump for the Pilatus PC-6, a classic workhorse of New Zealand aviation.

From setting up the specialised test equipment through to completing the overhaul, it's the kind of detailed, hands-on work our Components team does day in, day out.

Whether it's a complex component or a tight turnaround, we're set up to get it done right.

Did you know Fieldair is New Zealand's sole distributor of ITW Ground Power Units? ✈️

GPUs supply electrical power to aircraft while they're on the ground, so there's no need to run onboard auxiliary power units or engines. That means lower fuel burn, reduced emissions and noise, and a safer, more efficient ground operation.

ITW GPUs are used across the industry, from MRO facilities and commercial operations through to business aviation and remote sites, and are known for their reliable, stable power output and durable build.

We supply three models to suit different aircraft types and operational requirements:
⚡️ ITW GSE 1400 — compact 28 VDC solid-state GPU, easy to manoeuvre in mobile or fixed configurations.
⚡️ ITW GSE 2400 Compact — the go-to point-of-use 400 Hz GPU, simple, reliable, and robust.
⚡️ ITW GSE 7400 eGPU — ideal for remote stands and hangars, with options for narrow body, wide body, and business jets.

Our support doesn't stop at supply. We help with equipment selection, installation, and ongoing technical support. Lease options are also available if you'd prefer to avoid upfront capital outlay.

10,000 hours. That's a lot of time in the air! ✈️

The Massey University School of Aviation Diamond DA-40 and DA-42 have been part of the Fieldair family since day one. We were involved in bringing it into the country, assembling it as a brand-new aircraft, and have proudly maintained it ever since.

But this aircraft is more than just a maintenance job. It's part of how the next generation of New Zealand pilots and aviation professionals get their start. Every hour logged in this aircraft is another step forward for a student working toward their wings.

Reaching 10,000 hours is a milestone worth celebrating and a reflection of the trust Massey University School of Aviation places in our team to keep their fleet safe, airworthy, and ready to fly.

A big part of that ongoing relationship is our Engineering team, Nic & Heath, who have been central to the care of this aircraft throughout its life. It's exactly the kind of long-term partnership we value deeply at Fieldair.

Congratulations to the team at Massey University School of Aviation on this milestone. Here's to the next generation, and the next 10,000 hours! 🙌

Bulk fuel maintenance is one of those jobs where the detail really matters. ✅

Our team recently completed a full service on an AVTUR bulk fuel tanker, working through the pump, filters, valves, hoses, and pressure systems to make sure everything is operating safely and to standard.

This kind of scheduled maintenance is critical. Aviation fuel equipment needs to be in top condition every single time.

Our EABP-accredited team handles everything from routine servicing and filter changes through to valve calibration, hose testing, and pressure relief checks. We also have a fully equipped mobile workshop, so most of this work can be done on-site, keeping downtime to a minimum.

Whether it's a single unit or an entire fuel facility, we keep your equipment compliant, safe, and ready to go.

Get in touch with Gower to discuss your fuel equipment servicing needs 📞 027 2372 216

🚁 Warbirds Over Wanaka 2026, you never disappoint!

It was great to get the team down to one of New Zealand's most iconic aviation events.

Some of the Fieldair team spent Easter Weekend connecting with customers, industry partners, and fellow aviation enthusiasts from across the country.

From the flypasts to the firepower on the ground, it never gets old.
