Cessna U206G, ZK-MCG c/n: U20603551 of Westland Air Charter Ltd Picton. I have searched the web but have not found a picture of this Cessna fitted with floats. In a post in December last year, Blue Bus commented "I notice that late in November the Cessna U206G Stationair ZK-MCG was transferred from Cludden Station to Westland Air Charter Ltd of Picton. So (can) I assume that MCG now wears the "boots" ?" It continued out to sea and then headed down the coast towards wellington, |

Floatplane over Titahi Bay
While walking on the beach yesterday this Cessna appeared! It must have lifted off from the Porirua inlet as it was still quite low.

Is that a rope dangling from the left float?
ReplyDeleteIt looks like it could be! I got two shots and it's in both but shaped differently - like its blowing around
ReplyDeleteWouldn't want it to flick up and get caught in the elevators or rudder!
ReplyDeleteit was pictured taken off from picton in the late 80s in a nz wings magazine on floats in a rainbow stripey colur scheme.it didnt last long it flipped over landing shortly after and was a land based plane after that
