The flight will be considered to be an oceanic sector. Perhaps this is because it is beyond 100 NM or just that it will leave the New Zealand Domestic FIR. In this case it is not the aircraft that is at issue but the operation. The Convair will have the liferafts and the other required equipment plus the crew will have been trained in its use. The ATR and its crew will have none of this.
