Adrian,

NOU's not really a spotters haven... As Banjo pointed out NZ, QF and SB are pretty much it in terms of airlines, FJ no longer operate to NOU... So you get a choice of A320 (NZ/SB), A332 (SB) and B737 (QF)

No aerobridges at NOU either and I always find it pretty interesting walking across the tarmac into the terminal building.

Directly opposite the terminal and across the runway is the Air Force base as well, I've never seen anything of much interest in there and I wouldn't recommend taking photos of any military instillations in this French protectorate.

Magenta is Noumea's domestic airport and an interesting little strip too, imagine Langley Park in Perth (in redbull season) but with an asphault tarmac.
