Question time # 107

I have another chocolate fish sitting wrapped on my table here for somebody !
All you need to do to get your teeth into it is to tell me:-

1.  What is this device ?

2. What aircraft type and model would you expect to find it hanging on ?

3. Would you care to place a NZ Civil registration on that aircraft ?

    So is it an L-39?

    Theres three on the register at the moment and neither seems to be the answer.

    So is a machine that was previously registered in NZ?

  13. Dave Paull28 July 2010 at 21:40

    Yes gents.
    It is a currently NZ registered L-39.

  17. Dave Paull29 July 2010 at 06:26

    Mornin JK

    No.
    It isn't ZK-VLK either.

    So that narrows the field down somewhat. (also previously suggested by Mit),

    Well said Mit - & who am I to argue with your self diagnosis.

    I suspected finger trouble all along TCS - TSC easy to do.

    So well done finally.
    It is indeed the Aero L-39 ZK-TCS.

    I will post pics etc later tis evening when I get home from the factory.

    Would you care to flick me your snail mail address for receipt of said chocky fish.
