Gleanings from 14 April

Outside Eurocopter's Ardmore hanger today was recently imported for T & P Williams Ltd of Hastings Eurocopter AS350B3 ZK-IBW.

Re-registered from ZK-IEG to ZK-HVX is this Robinson R44 registered to a Whitford owner.

Pacific Aerospace 750XL ZK-KBE was all 'tied down' at Ardmore and has recently had demo colours applied to its fuselage so perhaps about to head overseas.

Vincent Aviation's second Saab 340B ZK-VAB flew from Wellington to Auckland this afternoon and embarks for Brisbane either direct or via Norfolk Island 15 April subject to wind conditions.  It will supplement the Vincent fleet out of Darwin.  The aircraft sports a new livery, one wonders it this scheme will roll out across the fleet including the three ex Air National J32's now registered to Vincent Aviation.  On that note, the Vincent Dash 8 ZK-VAC flew a charter to Auckland 14 April and was noted inside the Air National hanger...............
