A possible first for NZ at Ardmore today 19-12-1




In what maybe, I believe a first for this country an aircraft lift has been installed in a hanger at Ardmore.
As can be seen in these photos Cessna 206H ZK-VZM msn 20608287 registered to Miplane Services of Manukau City is on the lift and is above Cessna R182 ZK-LAB msn R18201089 registered to Ryan Place Ltd of Orakei Auckland. This will allow a third Cessna to be housed in the same hanger. The lift with modifications is worth $20,000.
