Dove On Lanai

New Winglets


Hawaiian Airlines is having Aviation Partners Boeing Blended Winglets installed on eight of their Boeing 767-300ERs. To announce the addition, Hawaiian Air held a media event at the Honolulu International Airport a couple of weeks ago featuring N587HA, "Pakalakala", as the first of the eight to receive the winglets.

River Meets Ocean


The Waimea River ends at Waimea Bay, and the two are usually separated by a sand berm. When the rains are heavy, the berm is broken to allow the runoff to flow into Waimea Bay. It also attracts body boarders ride the out-going river's muddy tide. The waves caused by the river is similar to an artificial wave machine.

Congratulations!
