There were quite a few helicopters out in the sun at Ardmore last Friday, including these that I had not photo'd previously:
The Taranaki Rescue Helicopter Agusta 109E ZK-ITR2 (it could be mistaken for TSB). It is registered to Helilink Ltd of Auckland. (The first ZK-ITR was also an Agusta but an A 119 model).
I have quite often seen ZK-ITR2 in the Heliflight hangar at Ardmore and I wonder what rescue helicopter was filling in in Taranaki, or maybe the Taranaki rescue service is now being provided by others after the reorganisation of rescue helicopter services nationally?
Guimbal Cabri G2 ZK-IRR2 has not been posted on the blog before. It has recently changed ownership to M R Buttle of Auckland.
I took this photo of Bell Longranger ZK-HMJ3 because it looked so snazzy out in the sun. The registration is in gold and is partly obscured by the reflection of the sun. It is registered to M L Jones of Auckland.
Kawasaki BK 117 C-1 ZK-HQZ3 was registered to Oceania Aviation Ltd on 14/6/18 and was parked oujtside their hangar.
Our only 2 Agusta 109E's posing together.
