First photo of all four of Air NZ's Lord of the Rings themed aircraft...
Air New Zealand, Airline to Middle-earth, has now completed its Middle-earth fleet - the world's largest collection of flying billboards.
The family of two Boeing 747-400s, a Boeing 767-300 and the first of the airline's Airbus A320's will fly the equivalent of 400 times around the world during their time in this special livery.
This high flying quartet will carry the Middle-earth message globally, harnessing The Lord of the Rings publicity to lift awareness of New Zealand as a tourism destination.
