Feilding Dawn Raid 9-6-2019

Feilding Aerodrome hosted their dawn flyin this morning and there were more than 40 visiting and local aircraft on the field.  Jordan Elvy has posted a great selection of photos on Facebook, and I thought the following were of particular interest:

Tecnam P 92 Taildragger ZK-TBJ was up from the deep South, I would guess on a demonstration tour?

Along with its stablemate P 92 Eaglet ZK-TNZ2.

If the Tecnams were the newest, then a couple of Jodels would have to be among the oldest - the 1985 registered D 9 ZK-FLI built by Rob Gentry, which has been owned by Ron Day of Otane since 8/6/18.

And the 1977 registered D 11 ZK-DYB built by Graham French, which has been owned by AM Quayle of Pukerua bay since 2/8/13.  (But I would think that Jodels were of particular interest!).
