A flying visit to Christchurch this afternoon caught the new Beech 200C Super King Air
ZK-FDR2 , c/n BL-31 , about to be eased carefully into its hangar. There is not a lot of room to spare in both height and wingspan. This aircraft arrived in NZCH mid last month as VH-KFN and first flew as ZK-FDR on 01-10-09 and carried out its first official duty today. It is an ex R.F.D.S aircraft from West Australia.

Its hangar mate (below) is this Cessna 441 Conquest II
ZK-NFD2 , c.n 441-0141 . I assume it has become the back up machine. The previous back for NFD was the Cessna 421B Golden Eagle ZK-KBF , c/n 421B-0943 , which in now in Nelson.All three aircraft are registered to Garden City Helicopters and operate as the NZ Flying Doctor Services.

Parked and going nowhere in a hurry is the fuselage of Boeing 737-376
ZK-JNO2 which was cancelled from the register on 25-05-09.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBf6vkmskBKCnBBr4Lhn2UGvPQ2bzz002gZDgnkyw4YFHYPjBU59YS2wxIGxatRuTjuxYy-3i-UnF5rRoniMHVjsgaKEcaWjmSNHlSXvx6evemIjj6fzjLe57Hfes7vqsEwvrrRPNettFw/s400/JNO+CH+06-10-09.JPG)
