Our trip up the North Island took in Feilding for lunch (pretty quiet), Turangi (where RV 3 ZK-XRD was still in its bare metal scheme in the hangar), Taumaranui (where 2 hangars were locked - Minicab ZK-LDL was in one of them), and on to Te Kuiti which offered some different aircraft, as follows:
Super Air Cresco 08-600 ZK-LTT was tied down in the early evening sun.
Other well covered aircraft included the straight tail Cessna 172 ZK-REV2 for a Te Awamutu owner, A visiting Piper PA 28R-200 Cherokee Arrow ZK-EBE from Auckland, and locally owned Cessna 182P ZK-RLG2 , Cessna 150H ZK-CTB2 and Quad City Challenger II ZK-MHK.
And there were several aircraft in open fronted hangars and well covered from the elements. For example, the above photo is of our other type of Beaver: the Beaver Enterprises Beaver RX 550 ZK-WSP ( ex ZS-WSP).
Thanks for the post guys passed thru there around the same time .No aviation activity allowed .for me .would have liked to have a quick look around the airfield .
