Guys, a big miss here is that the A/C was non RVSM. Do the fuel figures at FL 280? No alternate possible, or very iffy. Also, apparently, Pel-Air banned from operating to Noumea for not having EGPWS and TCAS 11. Kind of important stuff!!! NZ regulations don't allow non RVSM A/C in their airspace without 4 hours warning!
