Jordan Elvy visited Wanganui airport on Sunday and found a couple of interesting aircraft in the aero club hangar:
Jonathan Mauchline has recently been restoring this first generation microlight Skycraft Scout Mk III
ZK-RWW (c/n HAR 1998), and as can be seen it is nearly ready for test flying.
Actually it was re-registered by CAA today, 9/5/22, having been previously withdrawn from use at Wanganui in September 2001. I like the motorcycle fuel tank!
And another interesting aircraft in the hangar was the Alpi Pioneer 200
ZK-WHC which I haven't seen since early 2004. After being owned in the Wairarapa for many years, ownership transferred to a Wanganui owner on 10/8/21 and now has Whanganui in small letters on the fin fillet.
Thanks for the photos Jordan.
