Parked up in the CRAC number 2 hangar is the Cessna 150A ZK-BPO (c/n 17688) is listed with the BPO Syndicate. It got its NZ CofA back on 12-01-1960.
Something a little different is this Sport Copter Vortex M912 ZK-RRJ (c/n 178) built in Scappoose, Oregon for Kevin Slattery at Rangiora.
It parks in Kevin's hangar beside his Aerospool Dynamic WT9 ZK-EWW.
As you can see it is a gyro powered with a green top Rotax 912.
This 'M' model was specially designed to suit Australian mustering conditions.
These are aerobatic and can (and are) regularly rolled and looped.
There are two earlier models in country.
Does any reader know what happened to Alf Crowes Sport Copter after his passing a few years back?
