Pik 30 ZK-GST

I am saddened to report that the glider that crashed with fatal results at Snowy Top in the Diadem Range, about 20km west north west of Omarama on the 18th of January was the Pik 30 ZK-GST (c/n 717).

This motorised self launching glider joined our register on 21-11-1985 listed to C D Drummond, A F Moss, C A Rennie and D Budge of Nelson.

Ownership changed to Chris Richards and J N Greene of Blenheim on 01-11-1988.

It was transferred to Michael John (Jo) McKellow of Darfield on 24-09-2008.
