Old New Zealand aeronautical charts

In late 2021 I came across a source for scans of all the old New Zealand aeronautical charts and plates. The scans are excellent but the indexing is just about non existent when it comes to trying to isolate them out.

Go to: geodatahub.library.auckland.ac.nz 

Have a look in the Knowledge Base at the New Zealand Mapping Service section, click on NZMS_009A, NZMS_009C, NZMS_012A, NZMS_89A, NZMS_096 and NZMS_228 then click on .jpg

NZMS_006 contains hundreds of aerodrome plates and instrument procedures.

NZMS_103 covers the NZ-UK air route in 1953.

Some of the earliest charts that I could find date from the late 1930s.
