  1. Some of the 750XL's escape without any pics, but that ZK-JHM will be 'well recorded'!! I was there a couple of days later - I noted it was all tanked up, so I guess it is O/S bound. I also saw ZK-KAH, but decided it was too hard. ZK-JIF was inside the factory, almost finished with a blue tail and taped on registration.

  3. Today ZK-JHM arrived at its final destination in Beromünster, Switzerland. After we lost our first PAC last year (ZK-JPP), this is its successor.

    Here are some impressions from the arrival (still unpainted):
