A part of the Marlborough Aero Club was set aside as "restoration row" at Classic Fighters 2017. It featured among other projects, the magnificent restoration of the Fairchild F 24C-8-C ZK-ABE3 .
ZK-ABE3 (c/n 2605) was registered to TV Collins (Trevor and Nicki) of Spring Creek, near Blenheim on 8/2/17. It was a shame that it wasn't out flying.
You may have missed it but ABE made her maiden post-resto flight on Monday: https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=1392137840825275&id=130944040278001
