Cessna 172 ZK-MLY

A pleasant surprise at Raglan 10 November was the arrival of New Plymouth based Cessna 172 tail-dragger ZK-MLY!

Thanks again to Blue Bus for providing the following detailed overview of this "old" lady:


This 1956 model was delivered to Swisher & Swank of Crawfordsville, Indiana in 1957 and then on to William Hogan at Oberlin, Ohio in 1966. On 26-04-1968 John Coates of Port Angeles, Washington featured in the changes, with Doug Moore at Port Ludlow receiving it on 10-03-1998. Its two final US owners were in Ohio; Michael Achenbach of Dalton Garden from 26-04-2005 and then Precision Radiology at Rexburg from 17-11-2009. It is now with John Anderson of New Plymouth. John previously had the SkyStar Series 5 Outback ZK-RJA which he sold to the Miller Syndicate in January 2011.
