Special Exhibitions Air New Zealand 75 years Air New Zealand 75 years This is pretty much a cooperate show about New Zealand's national airline. Though this is a "ride" at the very end called the "Virtual Flight Lab", which is very well done and worth going into the exhibit just to go on it – especially if you've got kids with you :) Taku Tamaki - Auckland Stories Taku Tamaki - Auckland Stories This show was put together for Auckland's 175th Anniversary.
