Rotorway Exec ZK-HYE/4

A couple of days ago I met up with Phil Finlayson at his workshop near Dairy Flat.  Phil has a couple of  Rotorway Exec helicopters and has recently completed his ZK-HYE4 ready for CAA inspection.  Phil's other Exec is ZK-HWZ2 that he recently acquired from Tim Pike of Waiuku.  Phil also sent me a photo of ZK-HYE4 on its trailer at Whangarei :

ZK-HYE4 has a c/n of AACA/545 which is the same c/n one of our earliest Rotorway Execs ZK-HUB which I posted about (with others) HERE.  ZK-HUB was cancelled as withdrawn on 25/7/11 and ZK-HYE4 was registered on 27/6/23.  I also saw it in a hangar at the 2014 SAANZ flyin at Bridge Pa in Hastings when Cliff Johnston was rebuilding it.  Somewhere along the line Phil acquired it and it has been rebuilt to Exec 162 standards.  Phil intends to fly his Exec at Whangarei.
