Getting there. ZK-BDE

Today was the first time that I have seen the immaculate Cessna 180 ZK-BDE (c/n 30459) out of its hangar.

This has been a major rebuild project by Arnold Gallagher and Malcolm Price over the last couple of years. It was re-registered to Arnold on 19-01-2011 having, I believe, been damaged near Cheviot in July and cancelled in September of 2008.

This is how it looked in November of 2008.
