Helio there Anonymous Barry. You have scored again. The Trevor Collins Helio H-250 Courier II ZK-TCE c/n 2503 as spied at Omaka 31-03-07. Don't worry about the tire pressure - that was only needed if I got a flood of correct answers.
Helio Courier MK II to be exact and it was built in early 1965 as being no. # 2503. A bit underpowered for a Helio me thinks, but a nice example no less
That flap "thingy" at the leading edge are referred to as Handley Page leading-edge slats and they are automatic and respond to angle of attack, thus the Helio is stall and spin-proof.
