It arrived at Rangiora in mid December - was listed as ZK-AMC2 on 14-01-2015 to Alex and Richard Mason of Rangiora - its marking were applied today (16-01-2015).

Photo above was shot today with the "AMC" marking not yet dry.
That's Richard with his head in the bowels of the Grey Ghost.
These marks were first used on a Short S.30 Flying boat.
Both Zenairs are nice looking machines.
