ZK-ZXL lost
Off Topic : God defend New Zealand
Not NZ Civil Aircraft related: But interesting :
Withdrawn from service about six years ago; these Douglas A4 Skyhawks of the RNZAF have been in storage in one of Safeair's hangars at Woodbourne. A recent need for hangar space for the C130 upgrades has meant these aircraft have been "spraylat" covered and placed in open storage.

Tundra Tires (Tyres) #2
Nelson 19th May 2008
Seldom seen (by me). Cessna 180 ZK-BDR/2 was caught at Nelson on 19-05-2008.
The above pic shows the Aerospatiale AS350B2 ZK-HYM/2 , c/n 9045 , at Milford Sound in December of 2003.
These two pics taken on 19-05-08

This aircraft arrived in NZ As N6764D back on 14-09-2007 and has spent much of its time up until now being worked on at Avtek in Timaru.
This aircraft , c/n 32496 , has an extensive Australian history since 1956.
It was ferried into Auckland via Norfolk Island on 13-11-1994 and was listed briefly to Airflite South from 28-11-94 until relisting to its current owners Pukaki Inns Ltd on 16-12-94. It seems to spend most of it time tucked away in its hangar at Omarama.
During February 2007 a long line went up through the rotor blades and by the time it was landed the airframe was damaged beyond economical repair.
It has now re-appeared with Helicopters (NZ) Ltd from 12-05-2008 as ZK-HMQ/3.
Oh the lovely sound of those Continental GTSIO-520's as the Cessna 404 Titan Ambassador 111, ZK-NDY , c/n 404-0693 , takes off from Nelson on 19-05-2008.

Although registered to Dennis Thompson International Ltd, it carries the Ashburton Aviation Services logo on the fuselage side just ahead of the door.
