Question time # 147

We have four photographs sent in by Ray Bremer taken of an unknown aircraft which has been gifted to "The Blokes Shed" at Taieri airfield.

 We would all like to know more about it.
Who started the build ?
When ?
Why did the project stop ?
And anything else you can tell us would be very much appreciated.
Blue Bus doe not have the answer !
I seem to recall that a batch of Starlets (4 I think) was started at Taieri some years back - would this be one of them ?

The "Blokes Shed" featured in a blog some time ago: See :-

    I don't think its a Starlet, or if it is its got lots of little modifications.

    Def NOT a Corby, this has a 2 peice wing and fuse is totally wrong shape.

    The 4 corbys that were started in Dunedin are still being finished by various people

    What about it being a Jodel D9 ?

    ZK-DEV was damaged at Taieri back on 25-10-1987.

    Did anyone in NZ start a Ward Gnome?

    Isserfiq.
    Probably as good a guess as any other offer so far.
