On 19th of March 2005 I managed to avoid being detected by the Oamaru Airport security system to get a couple of shots of the North Otago Aero Clubs twin engine trainer.
Actually it's a cut down hot water cylinder. Note lights for night flying. AIt is aproved for flight into known icing conditions (skis). Ratings available, I would imagine, by the greasing of palms. I have it on good authority that when calculating take off distances that the curvature of the earth has to be taken into effect.
