Some helicopters in Canterbury

Noted at Christchurch today was one of 2 new Guimbal G2 Cabri's imported recently,  ZK-HUA5 which  is registered to John Campbell Holdings, Te Araroa.  John is a well known former champion long distance running athlete.

Down the road at Mt Hutt Aviation near Methven was MacKenzie Helicopters, Tekapo AS350BA ZK-HBX2.   The was originally imported from the USA in mid 1996 as ZK-HYP2,  becoming HBX a month later.

And the only active helicopter at a very windy Mt Cook was AS350B2 ZK-HBT6.  Originally imported from Australia in 2006 this is currently registered to High Country Helicopters, Riversdale but is being operated by Inflite/Mt Cook Skiplanes & Helicopters.
