Tecnam P2006T NG ZK-XPT at North Shore 15-6-2026

It is not often these days that you can photograph a brand new fixed wing aircraft, but I was pleased to be able to do just that yesterday:

Tecnam P2006T NG ZK-XPT (c/n 1014) was registered to XP Aviation Ltd of Waiheke Island on 22/4/26.  It has been assembled at North Shore and is powered by 2 of the latest version of the Rotax 912iS engine .  It has been signed off by CAA and a test flight is imminent.  I understand that it will be based at Ardmore.
