Meanwhile at Oceania at Ardmore the Aerospatiale AS 350B2 Squirrel c/n 3909 was registered to Bryan Comerford on 10-06-2014 as ZK-IEO.
A pic if ZK-IEO can be seen at :-
On 21-08-2014 this was re-registered to ZK-HQN3.
So I imagine we now await an ownership change for both of these ----
HIY ex Helitours is going to a private operator in Mid Canterbury and IEO is off to Helitours I believe.
ReplyDeleteExcellent - Thanks for the confirmation of my guess.
ReplyDeleteThere is a new HQN in at Queenstown flying around, can only presume it is the old IEO?
ReplyDeleteCheers.
ReplyDeleteDon't suppose you have a "UBeaut" photo of it yet to bung on the blog ?
