A flying visit through Rangiora today found the Cessna 120 N77317 (c/n 11759) has finally succumbed and joined the NZ civil register for Fred Vernon as ZK-XTX as from the 13th. The XTX being applied, and the "N" covered over, in the last couple of days. This is only the second Cessna 120 on our register after ZK-FFK which was listed on 13-09-1983 and is currently with the Vintage Cessna 120 Syndicate of Hamilton.
