Aero L-29 ZK-JRF , c/n 892851, was observed today in the rear of the Wairakei Holdings hangar at the western side of Christchurch Airport.
Compared with others of its type in NZ that I have observed, this is a really tidy unit.
It is stored in John's hangar along with his EC 120 ZK-IFR.
It has been registered in NZ since 30-10-2007. Previously being #2851 with the Czech military.
It will shortly be joined by the NA78 Harvard ZK-XSA, which is moving in from Forest Field.
The tidy office has many "Western" instruments.....
Hi,
ReplyDeleteif you still read this, I'm really interested in ZK-IFR as I love the paint sheme and am trying to paint it on a EC120 for a flight simulator..
I just can't find more than 2 pictures of ZK-IFR on the Internet, it is just impossible to accurately paint a helicopter like that.
So, if you read this and have a couple of pictures of this beauty, I'd be so happy if you contacted me (my name is my email adress)! :)
This'll be a brilliant addition, provided it's still here and will remain here. But XSA is still here in Rangiora, not sure where you got your info about it moving from!!
