-Something Different at NZKF Today - 1-7-2020

Not civil but operating at a civil airfield,  a Royal New Zealand Navy Kaman SH-2G (I) Super Sea Sprite helicopter NZ3612 arrived overhead at Kaipara Flats airfield this afternoon and flew a couple of circuits.  It was well out of the ordinary to the airfield's normal movements!

I was fortunate to be on the spot doing some work on my Jodel's new canopy.

On approach seen over the big new hangar,

to a hover over the runway,

 then a half pirouette,

and climbing out back to Whenuapai.

It was pretty hard to see what the serial number but you can just see the 12 low down and ahead of the cockpit.
